WEBINAR DESCRIPTION

Nigeria: Visas, Work Visas/ Residence Permits and Nigeria's New Visa Policy

The importance and need for effective reforms and implementation of existing immigration laws have never been more important, particularly since the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020. The pandemic affected all countries and areas of life and more than ever before brought to the fore an awareness of mobility & immigration issues in the world.

These issues include suspension of Nationals from many countries from entering Nigeria, flight bans, suspension of the implementation of the New visa Policy, and other radical steps by the Nigeria Government to protect its citizens.

Without a doubt, these government directives affected the entry and exit of tourist and business visitors.

In this webinar, we will address the issues and update on the current status of these government directives, we will also share knowledge on the types of visas available, immigration proceedings, checks on security and border control, revenue generation and citizenship, or obtaining permanent residency by investment.

Nigeria is Africa’s largest economy, one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world, and is considered to be an emerging market by the World Bank. As such, opportunities to live, work, own businesses, and invest abound.

During the webinar, Dayo Adu and Oluwapamilerin Adepoju will give an in-depth guide on Nigeria’s Immigration legislation, visas, and permits and also touch on Nigeria’s new visa policy
