The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has increased the cost of acquiring the Nigerian international passport from N50,000 to N100,000 for a 32-page passport with 5-year validity.
Similarly, 64-page passport with 10-year validity, which goes for N100,000, will now cost N200,000.
The increment, which takes effect from September 1, 2025, is contained in a statement signed by the Service Public Relations Officer, ACI AS Akinlabi, and released on Thursday.
It says the new fees will apply only to applications made within Nigeria.
“The review which only affect Passport Application fees made in Nigeria, now set a new fee thresholds for 32-page with 5-year validity at N100,000 and 64-page with 10-year validity at N200,000,” the statement read.
It adds that application fees for Nigerians in the diaspora remain unchanged at $150 for the 32-page, five-year passport and $230 for the 64-page, 10-year passport.
