The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has announced an upward review of passport application fees, effective September 1, 2025.
In a statement issued on Thursday, the Service Public Relations Officer, ACI AS Akinlabi, said the new rates apply only to applications made within Nigeria.
Under the revised structure, a 32-page passport with five-year validity will now cost ₦100,000, while the 64-page passport with ten-year validity has been fixed at ₦200,000.
However, the NIS clarified that fees for applications by Nigerians abroad remain unchanged. The 32-page, five-year passport will still cost $150, while the 64-page, ten-year passport is pegged at $230.
According to the Service, the adjustment is aimed at safeguarding the quality and integrity of the Nigerian passport while ensuring continued accessibility for citizens.
“The Service reiterates its commitment to balancing quality service delivery with the need to ensure passport services are accessible to all Nigerians,” the statement added.
