Nigeria Govt To Start Delivering International Passports To People At Home

The Federal Government has announced that Nigerians will have the option of getting their passports delivered to them at home, offices, and other places of choice from the beginning of next year.

Minister of Interior Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo disclosed this at the opening ceremony of the 2023 University of Lagos International Week.

Ojo said;

“We have commenced the automation of our end-to-end passport application process, and we have given a timeline from which Nigerians will begin to experience the ‘sweet experience.

“By implication, Nigerians will not need to wait longer than two weeks before they get their passport.

“By January next year, Nigerians will be able to complete this application process online, and by February next year, with collaboration and partnership with other relevant stakeholders, Nigerians will have their passports delivered to their homes, offices, and other locations of their choice.

“This, of course, would be extended to our visa application process. We are deploying technology throughout the entire process to make it as seamless as possible. To achieve this, we have set everything into motion to open more visa application centres across the world.

“In this regard, we are also working on strengthening our visa-on-arrival policy. We are working with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to enforce the principle of the doctrine of reciprocity, and a committee has been set up in the ministry to achieve this.”

Ojo also said that the integrity of travel documents would be restored via data harmonisation.
