→ Nigeria visa for British citizens

For United Kingdom passport holders, obtaining an e-visa is the primary route for travel to Nigeria, allowing for a maximum stay of 30 days. Eight distinct visa types, including tourist, business, and transit options, are available, each designed to accommodate specific travel purposes. When planning your journey, remember the significant five-hour time difference from the UK; navigating the bustling Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) in Lagos, often the primary entry point for direct flights from London Heathrow, offers an immediate immersion into Nigeria's dynamic culture. This initial experience sets the tone for exploring a nation rich in diversity and opportunity.
