babsjnr:

hello friends, i try to reschedule my interview date online @ nigeian embassy in london but still it won't change the date, guys please what can i do 2 reschedule my interview date early because i can't wait for the next 5 months for interview. thanks

if you are nigerian and looking to get a new E-passport (or anything related for that matter), just travel to abuja and do it in 2weeks.
As in, you give agent money, do finger print and in 2 weeks your brand new e-passport is in your hands ,live! !
no long thing.

Mine actually took a bit less than 2weeks.
je-je.

Please, Can anyone advice me on what to do?
I live in Romania but the Embassy here have no equipment to make the passport so, I have to travel to the Embassy in Germany. 
I applied for the epassport online and proceeded for the online payment. I tried my credit card but couldn't pay.
I have been to my bank and I was told there is no problem with my card. I've been trying since last month and am still yet to pay the 65 dollars.
Everytime I try, I get this message "Payment Not successfull, please try again with another card."


1. Is there any other means of payment?
2. Can I walk into the Embassy and explain my situation?
3. Would the Nigeria Embassy in Germany understand my situation/ would they help me?
4. What do you think I should do?

pls help

Hi all,

I am based in the UK and I need the E passport urgently. My question is does anyone know the waiting time from booking online and getting the passport in London?. Also if this is more than a month does anyone knows how to speed up the process?

Many thanks

Hi All,

What happens to your old MRP passport when you are issued the new epassport?

Are you required to turn the old one in? I'm asking because my current passport contains a US B2 visa valid for a couple of years.



Thanks

You are not required to turn it in, you simply hold the two passports whenever you are traveling. Show the old passport with the US visa when going to the U.S and also the new passport for them to stamp it at point of entry.

my date of birth is not correct on my passport, and the immigration office here in lagos said i have to go to abuja to fix it , does anyone here have details regarding it

Hi All,
I live in Chicago, IL. I had an appointment with Nigeria mission in Washington DC to apply for the new e-passport. I missed my interview date because the SW global website was not pretty straight forward with their information. I need to reschedule for a new interview which I did already through SW global. No changes to my request yet.

Questions.

1. How long does it take them to give me a new date?

2. I still have my old passport. What other documents do I need to take with me.

3. IS there a number to reach SW global apart from 877-693-1919

Your Kind reply will be appreciated.

i can get it 4u,u wil stay in my place.its 4real

Hi All,

I live in UK, myself and my wife already hold nigerian passports but not e-passports. My wife's passport is expired after 5 yrs, mine to expire next year.

We have decided to apply for new e-passports rather than to renew, also decided to apply for our children as well.

Question 1: As we already hold nigerian passports, do we still need a letter of consent to apply for our children?
Question 2: If we do, does anyone know the information that must be contained in this letter of consent? A sample will be appreciated.

Many thanks for your help.

Please A HIGH NOTE of Warning!!!!!!!!!!!
NEVER YOU PAY ANYONE OUTSIDE THE NIGERIAN IMMIGRATION SERVICES for any Passport. You will so much be wasting your MONEY.

lactemps i need to catch up with u on phone sometime's pls,

I collect my e-Passport next week, yay!

Hi NLders,

Thanks for all the info. Its quite useful.

I live in the UK (specifically Glasgow, Scotland) and I've got an interview date (9th January) at the Nigerian High Commision in London for the e passport.

Question is; Can I include a self addressed Royalmail Special Delivery envelop along with other docs in my application so that it may be posted to me when it is ready? My schedule is tight and I'd rather not have to make the Glasgow-London trip twice.

Secondly, on average how long does it take for the passport to be processed after the interview date.

Thanks guys. More power to your elbows,

Hello Nlanders,
I have a Nigerian E-passport, which would be expiring in 3months time, does anyone know how i can renew it around Europe here, i called Nigerian Embassy in Sweden, and they said they can not renew it now, but referred me to Nig Emb in Germany, but to my utmost surprise, the officer that i spoke with said the E-passport can not be renewed unless i go back to Nigeria. I am in total confusion now, does anyone knows how the E-passport can be renewed, is it true that they are gonna issue a new one instead of renewing it. Thanking you for ur useful response.

please anyone in the house that can help me with useful info, i lost my passport and other valuable things while coming back from the state, along mm international airport road, i engaged in a robbery attack and they stole a bag, which contain my passport and other valuabale things, please i want to know if a re- issue can be made and where can i go, how much will it cost me, what tips do i need to apply, good advise are welcome plsssssssss

Hello,pls must I get to abuja before I get a passport?on their site I was told to pay 70 dollars(4500),is that all its gonna cost to get the passport?

Hi All,
Been a while I contributed in this thread.
Is anyone still having issues on their e-passport? Please ask your questions, and I will do my utmost best to answer.

Please note, e-passport is easier now than before.

Take care ya'll.

How much does an international passport cost now?

last time I checked, its still $65 for Standard e-passport from the Nigerian Immigration website then local Admin charges. Pls check your Embassy's website for more details.

Please, i'm in canada, just applied for the e-passport and didnt know the interview date was computer generated. The date they gave doesnt work at all for me and the system doesnt change it when you try the reschedule tab, someone told me they dont really care about the online generated date but i'm not sure, any info would be appreciated, thanks

Hi! I am currently residing in Canada as an International student. My passport will expire on the 5th of January. I applied for an e-passport electronically. My interview date was scheduled for the 7th of December but I couldn't travel to Ottawa for the interview on that date. I tried contacting the embassy to let them know that I wanted to re-schedule the interview but i received no reply until the 7th. I'm planning on going there on the 14th. Do I have to let them know or can i just go to Ottawa and do it? I was also wondering if I'll have to do my e-passport in Ottawa again after applying electronically?

Thanks

dont know if you'ld ever see this but, how did things turn out for you? i'm in the same situation
