Hello, please am a resident of the United States and currently, I am really in need to renew my passport. I got appointment at the embassy in March but the pandemic did not let me go for capturing.

Please, I would appreciate if anyone can connect me with someone at the embassy directly? I do not really know if it's possible to get any emergency travel paper from the embassy? Because I really need to travel back home very soon. Lastly, or, is it possible to travel with the expired passport, has anyone ever tried this?

Note, I have called the embassy several times but with no response.

I would appreciate your contribution.

There's really nothing you can do until the embassy opens. My passport is expired too and I have tried to renew it in the Nigerian embassy in German, France, Poland and Belgium. None of them are open. The German Embassy staff pick up their phone and are really friendly but they say I should keep checking their website for when they will open. So my advice to you is to be patient, even if you have an insider, they will not renew your passport unless you are the President of Nigerias son.

I for help you..but as long as embassy is closed, there's nothing you can do.

Why do you really need to speak with an embassy official.

Thanks for your contribution... I learnt the Nigeria embassy in Austria still issuing passport.

Thanks for your reply bro.
I really wanna talk to any insider so that I can get it done. Thinking I can be lucky if I know someone in that embassy. Even if the embassy is closed, I'm sure they will still be operating underground.

I would appreciate it if you can help.

Under normal circumstances, you can travel to Nigeria on an expired Nigerian passport and renew when you get there. It's relatively easier if you're on a direct flight from the U.S. With Covid, I have no idea if the few operating carriers/evacuation flights will exercise the same optionality as under normal times. You would need to email/call and confirm before buying your ticket, and be sure to get written confirmation. It helps to provide them with the written rules when making your inquiries as most agents are usually unaware.
