The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has increased the cost of acquiring the Nigerian international passport.

This was disclosed in a statement on Thursday by the spokesman for the Nigeria Immigration Service, A.S. Akinlabi.

The cost was moved from N50,000 to N100,000 for a 32-page passport with 5-year validity. 

The NIS also said the 64-page passport with 10-year validity, which goes for N100,000, will now cost N200,000. 

The increment takes effect from September 1, 2025

“The review, which only affects passport application fees made in Nigeria, now sets new fee thresholds for a 32-page passport with 5-year validity at N100,000 and a 64-page passport with 10-year validity at N200,000.

“Meanwhile, Nigerian passport application fees made by Nigerians in the diaspora remain unchanged at $150 for a 32-page passport with 5-year validity and $230 for a 64-page passport with 10-year validity,” he said.
