Is there a need to still go to the NPC office for the hard copy or I can print the soft copy and present during capturing?
A soft copy of your birth certificate is not a bad idea but I would suggest that you go to the NPC office for the hard copy (just) to be on the safe side.

Hello, Ekitiman and All.

Hope you are having a fine day.

I am about to do a fresh application with the ikoyi office in mind as it is the closest to me.

I stay in Ajah, Lagos. Not sure if there is any other office around.
Only Ikoyi Passport Office is only on the Island. The rest (3) are on the Mainland.
If i do DIY, do you know if i can get this passport ready in say 2-3 weeks?
I strongly back your willingness to follow the do-it-yourself (DIY) route. Please note that your passport cannot be ready within 2-3 weeks. It should be ready between 8 and 12 weeks, depending on the availability of passport booklets.

Also, considering the recent upgrade, if i have an active Nin with correct information and no need for age attestion, what other documents do i need?
Requirements for Fresh Passport
Adult (18 years and above)
Letter of identification from local government or state of origin certificate.
Completed online passport application form.

An age declaration (is required from Nigerian passport applicants who were born before 1992) attached with one passport-sized photograph and duly endorsed by a Commissioner for Oaths of a High Court.
Acknowledgement slip and Evidence of payment.


Like the Local Government thing, since i am not from Lagos, is there a way to get the one of my state in Lagos without travelling to my local government for it? May I know your State?

Thank you.

Good afternoon. No, you cannot skip NIN verification. Your NIN must be provided before you're allowed to proceed with the application...

Okay,thank you sir. Exception of the ceased documents,(still in their possession) the local government certificate in the (original format is available now).

Awka, Anambra State.

Officers name can be mentioned too. Wish the was a spy camera to capture things life.
I might need to escalate the issue on your behalf to the headquarters of the NIS. Please what’re the documents seized by the officers from you?

ekitimanalways Good afternoon sir,and thank you for your inputs.

Please sir,I want to ask a question,I was meant to capture on 10th but my application was rejected because the local government of origin certificate was not available(original format),and the version I downloaded online was rejected too, because it was not original,I had to ask for the original to be couriered to me,it even led to the officers seizing my documents with threats of arrest,I found out the were pissed off because it was a DIY application,and one was even saying that I think I am wise abi?

Now that my appointment date has passed,can I reschedule a new appointment date? If yes,how do I go about it,if no can I go on and capture since all required documents are complete.

Ps: I found out I can't reschedule my appointment for my centre,can I go on and capture?
It's no surprise that the officer(s) showed no regard to you. You got first insight into how inhumane officers (not all officers) of Nigeria Immigration Service can be towards do-it-yourself Nigerian passport applicants.
You don't need to book an appointment again. Go back there and you will be captured. Please just make sure all the required documents are in order. Best wishes!
If I may ask, which Passport Office the inhuman treatment meted out to you?

Thank you, Ekitiman. Initially I was thinking anyone can use age declaration or birth certificate (irrespective of age).

That means I have to first begin application for a birth certificate. This takes me to another set of questions. From my end, using Google to search for things like this does not give real-life and actual amounts and information, so I'll be asking more questions from experienced people. Do I have to take anything to the NPC? How long and how much is the estimated time and amount to get it done? Thank you, Ekitiman.
You are older than 18 years. Therefore, the National Population Commission will not issue you a birth certificate. Instead of a birth certificate, you will be given an attestation of birth. Note that this attestation of birth letter is completely equal to a birth certificate and carries the same legal weight both in Nigeria and when using it overseas. To get this attestation of birth letter from the NPC, you must first process and present a court affidavit attesting to your date of birth and other personal details, and the affidavit must have a declarant who will be either your father or an older male relative (brother or uncle).

REQUIREMENTS FOR PROCESSING A BIRTH ATTESTATION LETTER
Age declaration affidavit (from High Court). This affidavit must contain the details of both your place of birth and date of birth, the details of your parents and their place of origin, and your home address. Your passport photograph must be attached to the affidavit and the age declaration must also be duly stamped or endorsed by the Commissioner for Oaths.

National Identification Number (NIN).

2 recent passport photographs.

Non-refundable application fee (₦3,000).

Visit the National Population Commission located in the local government secretariat of the State where you reside. When you get to the NPC office, you will be given a form to fill in for your attestation of birth letter.

Thankfully, the National Population Commission (NPC) offers a convenient online portal to complete the process. Visit the NPC website (https://nationalpopulation.gov.ng/) (https://attestation.nationalpopulation.gov.ng/welcome) and navigate to the “Services” section and choose “Birth Attestation.” Click agree below the page and proceed to enter your email address in the provided space and make the online payment of ₦3,000 using the provided secure payment gateway. You’ll receive a confirmation and reference number via email.

Once payment is confirmed, proceed to fill out the online registration form. This includes applicant details, parent/guardian information, hospital/clinic details, and document uploads as mentioned previously.

Carefully review every information and upload for accuracy. Submit the application after confirmation.


Use the reference number to track your application status. Upon completion, you’ll be notified and can download your official birth attestation from your NPC account.

Please ensure a stable internet connection throughout the process. Also, use high-quality scans of documents for clear upload. Alongside, please keep a copy of the reference number for future reference. If you encounter any difficulties, consider reaching out to the NPC through their contact information available on the website.

Same with me, do I need to go with a new appointment slip? Or I could still go with the one stating 16th of September. Also I checked the next available date on the website and I saw 23rd. I hope that doesn't apply to those that booked the 16th
No, you do need to go with a new appointment slip. The appointment slip with you is (still) valid...

I'm really grateful. This is a detailed explanation. By clicking on the link, can I begin the application myself with PC?

Secondly, I have done age declaration, but the signatory (commissioner of oaths) is what I am not sure of. I'll check my documents by morning, but before then, what happens if there's no endorcement by the C of O?

Lastly, I'm going to Osun. What do you think about the passport office in Osun?

Thank you Sir
Yes, by clicking on the link you can start your passport application process yourself (I am a strong advocate of do-it-yourself) with a PC and/or smartphone. The online application process is simple and easy to use.
https://passport.immigration.gov.ng/

If you were born from 1992, a birth certificate issued by the National Population Commission is required from you or age declaration if you were born before 1992.

Age declaration will be rejected on the day of appointment because the applicant did not attach a passport photograph of his or hers to the age declaration and because it's not duly endorsed by a Commissioner for Oaths.

My neighbour who had his passport done in Osun State some months ago said that the Osogbo Passport Office’s organized and friendly.

No offence, but you didn't have to call me sir. I appreciate your good manners and respect but please you can simply call me Ekitiman.

Good evening everyone. I am a fresh graduate making arrangements to serve somewhere in the West by October. I plan to apply for passport at the beginning of my service year, so that the waiting period for the passport will be reading concurrently with my service. I want to know which State in the West is best and quicker to deliver the passport, and the first steps to take in registering. I'm a newbie here and will appreciate advice and directions.
