I got one of the official translators on the Italian Embassy website to help me with mine. That was last year tho

Please which of them?

I am really tired of waiting for their response on date for legalization now.

Kolapobossboss:
Hello, good morning.


What did you think I can do, I've been trying to secure a date for my legalization appointment at the Lagos Italian embassy for the past 2 months but to no avail.

It's really frustrating as I'm an Erasmus scholar with scholarship and my program is commencing by September.


I've registered on prenot@mi and sent email several times. It's really tiring and frustrating, the anxiety the thing is creating can't even make me focus on my daily tasks.


I need your help guys, what should I do.

Have you received any updates on this?

Have you gotten a date for legalization yet?

You can use TLS

Hi all,
I did my biometrics at TLS on the 7th of July , but still yet to hear back 7 weeks later. My expected travel date in my application is 28th of August (tomorrow) . Will it be an automatic rejection if I don’t get a response before tomorrow? Do I have to reach out to the embassy for a change of travel date? Please advise

Please I need help on how to book appointment

No appointment for Italy visa application in lagos for 2025 this year

No appointment for Italy visa application in lagos for 2025 this year

Please do you have an idea if there’s appointment in Abuja this year ?

Same thing with Abuja. No appointment for Italy visa application for 2025 this year. I had already booked 2 months ago, with my appointment date on this past Sept 1st.

This information was originally from the Italy Embassy, not just from TLS. As a frequent traveller, I was surprised to receive a call from the Italy Consulate and was given options to pick a date between Nov 3 or Nov 7. I then asked why, and I was told there were some issues and that they were fully booked for the year 2025. They said they only gave me this privilege because I am a frequent traveller. I then asked if I could change my appointment location to Abuja, and I was told that even in Abuja there are no appointments for this year.

you got Schengen visa with them last time right? They didint give you long stay like 6 months? Why I always like France or Netherlands they issue 6 months easily

Judawoo:

Yes, i am a first timer

@Judawoo

You’re absolutely right. I’ve had 6 previous Schengen visas from Italy, both business and tourist, but the longest they ever issued me was just a 2-month multiple-entry visa.

They even rescheduled my appointment from September to November, and I had no plans to travel in November. That’s why I decided to apply through France instead. My new appointment with France TLS is on September 23rd, and in both my application form and cover letter I clearly requested a long-term Schengen visa from France.

So when Italy moved my appointment from September to November—when I had no travel plans—I chose to apply via France, where I was able to get an earlier date for September 23rd. Besides, the Italian consulate has never given me a long visa anyway, so I’d rather not wait until November 3rd just to risk the same outcome of sort team visa always issue by italy again.

So like this no appointment for Italo? Nah wa ooh. What country can one apply through to? The person is going for conference next month in Italy..
