The Federal Government of Nigeria has announced an upward review of the fees for the Nigerian passport.
This was contained in a statement by DCI Kenneth Udo, the spokesman of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS).
The new price would be effective from September 1, 2024, according to the statement.
He added that the move was part of the efforts to maintain the quality and integrity of the Nigerian standard passport.
The statement revealed that a 32-page passport booklet with a five-year validity, which was hitherto charged at ₦35,000, will now be ₦50,000.
Similarly, a 64-page passport booklet with 10-year validity previously charged at ₦70,000 will be ₦100,000 from September 1.
“However, the fees remain unchanged in Diaspora,” he said.
