→ Iceland visa for Nigerian citizens

As an Icelandic passport holder planning a trip to Nigeria, you'll find the e-visa system offers a convenient pathway, allowing for a maximum stay of 90 days. With eight distinct visa types available, including options for tourism, business, and transit, you can select the one best suited for your visit. Prepare for a significant time zone shift, as Nigeria operates on West Africa Time (WAT), which is 3 hours behind Iceland's time.
