According to a report by
Punch, while Nigerians pay exorbitantly for Visa fees of many foreign countries, some foreigners don't pay much for ours. In fact, 13 countries in the world pay just one dollar. They are: nationals of Mauritania, Monaco, Morroco, New Zealand, Panama, Uruguay, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Burma, Dominican, Chile and Colombia. Single-entry Nigerian visa in these countries will cost you between N00 and N 200. For those applying for multiple entries, the fee is multiplied by the number of entries they are seeking.
US citizens are charged the highest, about N14,000 followed by Russia who we charge about N10k.
UK is N9,700, whereas a multiple-visa applicant is charged N16,200.
Countries such as Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Romania, Belgium and Spain, pay a little above N6,000 for a single-visa application. Multiple-entry visa application fee in most of the listed countries is N9,000 plus.
All this was gotten from Nigeria's immigration website, NIS.

#Linda..,
Imagine how we are viewed by other continents and countries...so annoying.
GOD HELP US
Madam Linda, your information is outdated. Nigeria immigration operates the 'principle of receprocity' as regards visa charges... British citizens pays the highest visa fee.
Nigerian Immigration has not updated its website for over a decade. So, ofcourse you are correct, going by the information on their website.
GOD WILL SAVE US
Yes bcos their ppl don't trvl like Nigerians, Indians, Chinese and Filipinos so I'm not surprise at their statistics, although our govt shud ve a role to play in visa fees for each embassy, it shows that the ties or bi-lateral relationships with foreign countries are not so effective cos its negative to Nigeria and it is the truth
Lol
We keep selling ourselves short.
Just 1$… Its alright
Moye says so via BB Passport...Courtesy LIB....
Imaging that. I dey travel go Togo.
smhhhhhh
Exactly how foreign countries value us. Who do we blame?
Are we not the ones that are always desperately running to other countries? They took advantage of us by making it expensive for us to enter their countries because they know we are always desperate to go to foreign countries. So i dont blame them. Na we cause am. They only come here for business or visits or holiday. So if u increase the visa, they will look for other countries to go on holiday. But if na Naija they will apply for visa 10 times with different names when refused visa and we keep complaining that we dont have money. I nor blame them jare. Na we Naijas cause am. Stmcheew
That's the official rate but one can't apply and pay for the visa online or in person but have to use their appointed agent within the embassy premises that charges average of £150- £250 as the processing fee unlike other Embassies that has no hidden charges and one can apply directly online.
Exactly how those foreign countries value us. Who do u blame? Bad govt foreign policies
Nawa oooo niger my country land it well
Ohhhhhhhhhhh, my coutry. Wat re u turning into. God help us
They need foreign visits!
OKORO UPGRADED**
Its a shame n its bcos our so called leaders r belittling dis country.
Nigeria is in God's hands. May He deliver us.
I paid about £240 each for my girlfriend and son back in march so i don't know how valid this story is. I had to get a Nigerian passport for myself for £80 cos it was less than half the visa cost and less stressful.
What do u expect. With our dwindling economy, I'm not surprised.
Imagine how they get the visa on a platter of gold while we spend huge amount of money.
Any riffraff can come into the country, make a mess of it with more or less no sanction while the reverse is the case.
What do they wanna go do in Nigeria anyways -- Our country is F'd up on this M'fkin' Planet .. Perios
Smh
Smh
Smh
Buhari will bring back the glory to us.
Can you imagine & we would be killing ourselves to pay for their visas. Mcheeeeeeew! Linda take note!

Are you kidding me? Na wa ooh. American B1-B2 visa is about N31,200 at Gtbank. I don't even think these countries do interview in Nigerian Embassy. But go to US embassy and see questions. I just dey vex.... I have spoken..... Gbam!!!

Hmmm,O'ga o!
CAN U IMAGINE DS??TOMJERRYSWIT
GMB Government pls take note of that....
Hi Linda,
Obviously the NIS website is not updated. A single entry visa from India is 253 dollars so please don't take those figures seriously.
UK pay 1000 pounds! Check your source
They probably will say its to increase the in-flock of investors or tourists, Personally I think this is wrong, way too cheap
Wat a shame
Wat a shame
that's not Nice
Why make theirs so expensice here? They want us to stay in this miserable country.
6k kini where? Germany? big lie....it's 80 Dollars, please convert that amount to Naira and that's just for the Visa...other charges aren't included oooo
Too bad
ND we pay close 2 250k 2 get into dis country.dis na classic bullshit.
Jesus Christ! Nigeria has finished chai! #200 wat? Even dubai visa is $150, only God can restore d lost glory of dis country

Wow this so so sad and we pay thousands here to apply for visa that get denied at the end!!!chai dares God oooh.JC
Oh! My dear country naija
Thank Gd
The question is: Who wants to come to Nigeria and why?
We as a country need to make our country a hot spot, a choice location for holidayers. It will go a long way in boosting our image and thus our visa price.
This people have finished this country. May God deliver us.
That is very bad, I pray our president elect increase it, as sue as he assume office
Coming to naija is like attempting a suicide mission and should not cost anything else...#commonsense#
Please, could you kindly give me directions on how to go about getting a new Nigerian passport. I moved to the UK from Italy and my Nigerian passport got expired.I will really appreciate it, thank you.
Which glory?wen he was part of d destruction.. Pls sharrap
Big and beautiful.
Wht goes around comes around. Matter of time tins we change, and we wil start paying less. So no need 4d noise.
Whoever wrote the report is an idiot. Mauritania is a West African Nation, they don't need Visas to come to Nigeria neither do we need to go.
Fool it costs 29,500 visa fees to go to US get ur fact rights
This is a big lie. Uk pay about #45,000 to come to Nija. Pls get your facts right before coming out.
