What is the change? The Nigerian High Commission in Pretoria and the Nigerian Consulate in Johannesburg will soon require all visa applicants to submit applications in person and to provide biometrics. Third-party submissions will no longer be accepted.
What does the change mean? Applicants should prepare to appear in person to submit their visa applications.
BAL Analysis: While visa applicants must submit applications in person, third-party representatives will be permitted to accompany them to provide assistance. Those in need of assistance with a visa application should contact BAL.
