Reasons for passport delay in Nigeria.

Two years after the federal government announced plans to domesticate the production of international passports, the plans have failed to see the light of day as policy flip-flop continues to stall the process.

The Federal Government of Nigeria had in 2019 through the Nigerian Security Printing and Minting Company — responsible for printing Nigeria’s currency and other important security documents signed MoU with IRIS Smart Technologies Limited to domesticate the production of international passports (e-passports).


The then minister of Interior, Abdulrahman Dambazau was said to have set up a committee of critical stakeholders that would ensure that the project is implemented.

The passport domestication, according to the minister, will ensure the “availability of passport booklets and there will be no more complaints of shortage or delivery beyond 48 hours after application.”

However, two years after, the failed project has caused Nigerians several opportunities as scarcity of passport booklets persists across Nigeria because the government owes its technical partners abroad huge debts running into millions of dollars.

Several Nigerians have missed out on opportunities such as scholarships, study, medicals, child delivery, business engagements, and investment opportunities, amongst others while waiting to obtain their passports.

BusinessDay’s checks show that the passport booklets are presently being produced‎ by Iris Smart Technology Nigeria (ISTL) through its parent company, Iris Corporation, based in Malaysia, but it has refused to supply the product due to the alleged huge debts.

Passports are made by passport-printing companies that ensure that they follow the standards set out by the International Civil Aviation Organisation’s document 9303 ‘Machine Readable Trave Documents’ (MRTD). Doc 9303 sets the standard for how passports should be made and what kinds of security features they should include in order to avoid an attack.


Passports are made with special paper bound together using secure technology. Due to the intricacies of the design and the high priority on security, makers of passports are often companies with well-advanced technology infrastructure and they can be in any country. It is also possible for the various components of a passport to be sourced from different companies or countries.

For example, A company in the Netherlands is responsible for the biometrics and security details inserted into Nigerian passports, while South Africa provides the ink used for the printings done in the passports.

A source at Nigeria Immigration Services who craved anonymity told BusinessDay that Nigeria has failed to print its own passport booklets as a result of policy flip-flop.

It would be recalled that in 2018 the Nigerian government, through the comptroller-general of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) had announced plans for the domestication of the production of the Nigerian e-passport. The local production was supposed to be championed by the Nigerian Security Printing and Minting Company Ltd. The first batch of the locally-made e-passports were expected to be released before the end of 2018. The plan did not materialise by the end of that year.

“They came out with the deceit that the current passport is being produced in Nigeria only to discover that with this current scarcity, it is still a lie. The cabal is still holding it firmly to print passports outside Nigeria,” the source said.

He alleged that some persons are benefiting from the production of passports outside Nigeria, so the interest of the masses is secondary compared to their own interest.

“Immigration is the organisation with the best ICT-driven services amongst other government agencies in Nigeria. So, there is nothing stopping Nigeria from producing its own passports. Little of the amount realised goes to federal coffers. We are just enriching the so-called partners,” the source said.

However, the printing of passports is now a more complex design that combines various layers of printing features laminated together, while the stitching also is upgraded to make it near impossible to emulate.

Hence, it is not uncommon for countries to outsource printing their passports to well-established organizations with very sophisticated technologies located anywhere around the world. China, for instance, outsources its passport printing to a German government unit known as Bundesdruckere. Gemalto, a Thales Group company based in France prints passports for countries like Sweden, Turkey, and the UK.

Apart from Nigeria, Iris Technologies also prints passports for Senegal and Solomon Islands.

BusinessDay checks show that Irish Technologies had requested that the ministry should be given an easy window to access forex directly from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), which the Ministry was unable to facilitate, but rather was told to access forex through the parallel market, which the company said would be very expensive for it.

Troubled with huge debt profile difficulty to obtain foreign exchange, Irish Technologies was thrown into a dilemma. It was this bottleneck that led to the current scarcity, which inside sources projected would last long; unless there was an urgent intervention.

But experts insist that given that Nigeria abides by the provisions of the ICAO, it might as well be able to produce its passports given its abundant natural resources.

According to provision ICAO document 9303, the State issuing the MRTD also known as passports shall ensure that the premises in which the MRTD is printed, bound, personalized, and issued are appropriately secure and that staff employed therein have an appropriate security clearance.

Appropriate security shall also be provided for MRTDs in transit between facilities and from the facility to the MRTD’s holder.

ICAO also states that “States should control access to production and issuance facilities. Control should be zoned and the requirements for access to each zone should be commensurate with the value of the assets being protected.”

Tayo Ojuri, managing partner, Aglow Aviation Support Services Ltd told BusinessDay that plans are still on by NIS to domesticate production.

Ojuri said if the production of passports is localised, it will hasten production, create job opportunities, strengthen the nation’s sovereignty and save costs for the country.

Good day mates,

Any news update from Alausa (Captured in August) on the 32 booklets pls or the waiting continue?

Can we petition the Senate to intervene and must everything in this country be a struggle.

awumen:

Please which link can I use to 159£?
A cousin is traveling too

On the Locator form provided by the UK.Gov.

Cheers

theconsortium:
I am traveling to UK this weekend, where can I do the Corona virus test in Lagos and can I pay the £220 test kits with my naira debit card. I heard they won't deduct from our local card. Please I need answers.

.

@theconsortium

You can use Clina Lancet at Ikeja within 72 hours before you travel and beside why do you want to pay 220 GBP For the test?

There is the test for 159GBP now, AssuredScreening ****. No you can not pay with your local debit card because of the Credit limit of $100 ( Other banks) or $200 (GTB), Here I stand to be corrected on this .

Just get someone out side the country to pay for you or if you have Dorm a card.

Travel safely.

@odugbemiopeyemi

Boss man,

Pls do not submit your application without you separating your business account from personal account I beg of you.
Let all your clients be paying into your Biz account and at the end of the month pay yourself a salary pls.
Boss no rush submit oo. Uk no dey Joke oo.

You can run your account properly for the next 6 months and apply sometime in November pls.

giselle237:
I advice that u get a company account, have ur business dealings with ur company acct and then separate ur funds... if possible do what has worked for majority... open a company acct and have ur business dealings from there and pay yourself a monthly salary, must not be a fixed amount but should be constant... pay urself and from there u would have a better chance at having an idea of what to put as ur income, ur expenditure and finally ur disposable income.

Lastly while i appreciate that u have applied and successfully obtained a south african visa I must let you know that the way of thinking of their visa officers is way different. The uk application system has so changed, if u dnt dot your i’s so much so, just get ready for a refusal... and then when u keep goin back wtiut handling the matter from the drawing board, u will still get denied... in no near time u are seen as desperate and wud have succeeded in building a bad history.

U can not compare the scrutiny Nigerians applying from Nigeria for UK visas face at the moment to that of South africa, you cannot can! It is almost like every Nigerian wants to get a visa to go and live illegally in the uk.. and so they just overly scrutinize our applications! There is no room for confusion and over complicated statement of accounts, u make it so easy to be denied..
pls take ur time and dnt make mistakes.

Do you pay yourself salaries? Pls answer this question pls. It is very important.

odugbemiopeyemi:
PLEASE PLEASE SOMEONE SHOULD ANSWER MY QUESTIONS IS VERY URGENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Good morning house, Please I want to be guided concerning my UK visiting visa... I owned a registered LTD company I officiAlly registered a year and some month now, although the business as been running for 3 years before I registered it last year. But I haven't opened company acct for the business instead I'm using my personal saving account to running the business with good inflow and outflow.

But I have invoice of all deposited money into my account through my customers... No Tax clearance certificate

Please advise me if I can apply with my personal account running the business without company account? Secondly I was told many time that tax clearance certificate is not compulsory?



Here are the documents I wanted to use to apply


*Company CAC
*Personal account used for business transaction
*Invoice receipt
*Land property (deeds)
*2 Vehicle Proof of ownership
*Marriage cert
*Kids birth cert
*Cover letter explaining why I'm using my personal account for business that my company bank account is under processing
*Flight reservation
*Invitation letter or hotel reservation

Please is very crucial and I need your brotherly advise from all my brother on this platform and experience from people who are in my shoe before

My bad. Lol
Not @Giselle237.

@Giselle237 Thought you were the poster.

We are good.

giselle237:
what is ur problem? Or did you not see where I told the poster to not waste money because there is no ongoing tourism... later on he told us where the ECO had written wrong figures for him and sorry to burst ur bubble, if he goes for reconsideration he is highly likely to get his visa based on this error.
Is this the time meant for him to apply for visa claiming tourism- NO! Big capital no, there is no tourism ongoing!!
By his later comments did the ECO judge him wrongly- seems so.

This is a technicality, there is no sympathy here, you snooze you lose . Hate it or love it, the list is endless..
It has worked for others, he should try. The last person here was 1 or 2 months ago, christabeliciou..
pls this thread is for giving advice and not for people to pick pins and needles in what others have said. Give your advice and move on. Do not at me.

giselle237:
if they did this.. abeg send email to complaints email
U can get it based on this technicality. Them don expose themselves.
Check the thread for the complaints email, dnt let anyone discourage u as they have entered ur trap by this letter.
Send a mail for reconsideration, that u were wrongly assessed citing these things above .. check page 449 for the complaints email and send to them in form of a mail. There is small light at the end of the tunnel

To be Honest with you, Just swallow a chill pill.

People should not apply for tourist Visas for now because all the tourist attraction sites are closed

You wan go sleep for Uk or What are you going to be doing during your stay there?

Stop wasting money. There is nothing wrong with your application. One can not save again or what is your opening balance?

Only people going to visit family members but it is risky too.

All the best to everyone.
