The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has announced an upward review of passport application fees, effective from September 1, 2025.
In a statement released on Thursday and signed by the Service Public Relations Officer, ACI AS Akinlabi, the NIS clarified that the new fees apply only to passport applications made within Nigeria.
The revised fees are now set at N100,000 for a 32-page passport with 5-year validity and N200,000 for a 64-page passport with 10-year validity.
The Service also noted that application fees for Nigerians applying from abroad remain unchanged, with the 32-page, 5-year passport priced at $150 and the 64-page, 10-year passport at $230.
The NIS explained that the price adjustment is intended to sustain the quality and integrity of the Nigerian passport while ensuring continued accessibility for citizens.
This review comes less than a year after a previous adjustment approved by the Federal Government in August 2024, which took effect on September 1, 2024. That adjustment raised the 32-page, 5-year passport fee from N35,000 to N50,000, and the 64-page, 10-year passport from N70,000 to N100,000.
At the time, the NIS stated that the increment was necessary to enhance service delivery and maintain passport quality.
