The U.S Mission in Nigeria has listed new requirements for visa applications at its Abuja and Lagos embassies starting from April 22, 2025.

The Mission announced the new requirements in a short statement published on its X handle on titled Important update for Visa Applicants.

Read the new requirements for applicants for U.S visa from Nigeria below:

Visa Interviews: Starting April 22, 2025, all visa applicants in Abuja and Lagos must bring a DS-160 visa application form with a confirmation/barcode number (starting with AA and followed by 00 – two zeroes) that matches the one used to make their appointment online. You also must make your appointment in the location you selected when filling out your DS-160.

Matching Barcode Numbers: If the confirmation/barcode number on your DS-160 form does not match the one you used to book your appointment, you will not be allowed to enter the Consular Section or attend your visa interview.

Double-Check Your Information: At least two weeks before your interview, please double-check that the barcode number on your DS-160 form matches the one you used to schedule your appointment. You cannot reuse a DS-160 from a previous application.

Correcting DS-160 Barcode: If your DS-160 barcode is incorrect, you must log into your AVITS account at at least 10 days before your appointment to create a support ticket requesting correction of your barcode number.

Rescheduling Appointments: If you are turned away from your appointment because your barcode numbers do not match, once you correct the problem, you will need to book a new appointment to proceed with your visa application. You may book a new appointment by logging into your AVITS account at If your visa fee has expired, you may have to pay a new fee before booking.

America is well on its way to becoming a dictatorship. The words I am typing here simply acknowledge that my beloved America is in peril, yet are enough to send me into a dark cell in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, if I were to set foot in the USA any time during the next 4, and possibly 8 years.

A villager at heart, my forest home here in the Cameroons lies at the end of a dirt road, by a river where crocodiles roar at the full moon. Not even for a free ticket and 5-star hotel stay would this realist venture near American shores now that the KKK has installed a convicted felon in the White House. The nightmare that is unfolding for America will sadly impact the entire planet, but that said, the USA is no longer safe for anyone prone to offering criticism of the Maximum Leader online.

To anyone visiting America any time during the next 8 years, bear in mind that your phone's password will be requested by Gestapo agents on arrival in any American airport, and all your social media comments will be scrutinized. Any anti-Trump sentiments found in your phone could qualify you for detention without trial or a time limit in an El Salvador concentration camp.

Is really nice

Singapore is a very strict country

1. Anyone carrying chewing gum into the country is in trobule.

2. I don't think I need to mention what happens if you carry drugs into the country.

With the crackdown on immigrants in the US, there would be less visa application.

Noted.

God bless you abundantly for this comment, if everyone throw face one side and see US as an hostile environment, their gragra go reduce, what is even special about America sef

Tightening the noose, I see. Can't blame them. USA had sometimes played the devil's advocate, some times played the big brother; all the while bleeding funds for 'unserious' countries.

A 12-year study showed they've given almost twice more in aids to world causes, than any other country in the world. Even a 2023 trade report with their Top 20 trade partners showed that they have a trading surplus with only 5 of them (total of $76 billion) and a huge deficit with the rest 15 (total of $1.1 trillion).

It is common sense that they step back and take care of America first, once in a while.

I decided to ignore his comment. Can he carry drug to US and remain free? Why is he even thinking of drug in the first place?

It's easier to get pùssy in Nigeria so I'm not going anywhere

When I ready for them, I go apply. For now, I’m busy making money.

If you tell Nigerians to avoid the US embassy for now, dem go say you be Bad belle.
If you must travel.... like your life depends on it, choose other locations.

Entering Swiss no hard like that. Once you get any Schengen visa, you can enter easily. It's not necessary for you to get Swiss visa directly.

I don't understand, are you a crime syndicate??

Going through another country will cost you more money

Please you Nigerians don't come to Singapore and spoil it for us Singapore will not take shit from anybody who breaks there law even if you are the prime minister

TheBreastSucker:

That's to be expected but it's not so expensive. You can take a train ride from one Schengen member state to the other, as long as your papers are valid...
