Do you need a Nigeria tourist eVisa?
British passport holders need a visa to visit Nigeria. Since May 2025, short visits such as tourism, business and visiting family can be applied for online as a Nigeria eVisa, with decisions usually within 48 hours.
eVisa or regular visa?
The Nigeria eVisa is single entry, valid for between 30 and 90 days depending on the type, and can't be extended. If you need a longer stay or several trips, apply for the regular Nigeria tourist visa instead.
What a Nigeria tourist eVisa covers
A Nigeria tourist eVisa is for holidays, sightseeing and visiting family or friends in Nigeria. It doesn't cover business meetings or paid work. If you're travelling for business, see our Nigeria business visa page.
UK residents on other passports
UK residents on other passports apply the same way unless their nationality is exempt, such as ECOWAS countries. Longer stays and work need a different visa.
