Please a swedish friend of mine wants to come and live in Nigeria
What does he need?

To come and live, he must either come in as a worker or an investor. He will thus need a STR Visa first from Nigerian Embassy, with supporting documents from Nigerian Company.

Or if married to a Nigerian, can process a 'Niger Wife' immigration approval

Thanks. He neither wants to work nor invest. He just wants to come and live here for a few years. Are you saying he can't? He has enough money to support himself.

He's not married.

I don't think there is any country that has visa to just come and live. Visas are for tourists, business, work an investment. People use any of these to explore staying long.

What is he doing to have enough money support himself? He can apply for a multiple entry business visa and break his stay for 6 months at a time through extensions. On entry, he will be given one month to stay. Since he intends staying longer than 56 days he can pay $200 dollars at the airport that will allow him stay for 90 days. He is still entitled to another 90 days extension before the expiration of the first 90 days. He can then go back before the expiration of his stay and come back again and repeat the process. Who knows since he has enough money, he may invest here or get married to a pretty Edo girl during this period..
