Nigerian visas are being denied. I tried to process 2 resident visas for Nigerians and all were denied. I think UAE government is cooking up something for us. Soon we will find out what it is.

Someone above who cares for his country men has just been vindicated with these claim of urs. Thanks bro. We already saw the green light. But the Nigeria embassy in there full galore of stupidity and recklessness decided to fool some people to think all was well even when it's glaring to everyone that fire is on the mountain. It's high time you all beam your searchlight to Kuwait and ,Qatar.

Do you see the reason why some people weren’t able to renew their visas neither do a change of status? So it was not only Nigerians that was affected by this. They will resolve this soon since they have been given 1 month grace.

Brother that is not exactly true. The only people who were rushing to do their visas were other nationalities. Any Nigerian going to Amer Centre is turned back from reception with "NO visa renewal for Nigerians". Most serious agencies said same too. Visa renewal was being done in a rush for other nationalities though.

What you need to understand is that it’s not only Nigerians that was unable to do visa renewals some other nationalities was also faced with the same problem. The reason for all of that we do not know because it was not stated from a verified source. UAE only started issuing visas last month since the ban on visa issuance since March, so probably there will always be a lot of people since March up till now that wants to renew their visas and those that are applying for visa change.

Asides countries like Nigeria ,Yemen, Somalia, Libya, Bangladesh. Other countries we're and are successfully doing their visa renewals. It may only take time because of the rush. This is different from going to the same place with twice the money and being turned back once they hear Nigeria. Our government and embassy are doing nothing about it, our people somehow are arguing against it. Maybe because many Nigerians are of the wrong opinion that UAE needs Nigeria visa to survive and can't do without us or else their economy will collapse.

Good morning my people,
Please i have a pressing question that needs urgent attention as it may save a lot of us(Nigerians in UAE on visit visa)here.
I work at DAMAC maison hotels and resorts business bay Dubai, just yesterday morning my manager summoned all Nigerian staff to a meeting only to inform us that he regrets to announce to us that our contract is going to be terminated at the end of this month(August) as the authorities has place a ban on all visas for Nigerians and could not proceed on our resident permit application.
But a Ugandan colleague who is in the security department advised us( Nigerians) that we should move to either of Sharjah or Abu Dhabi and try and get a job that since they are different
emirates they(Sharjah, Abu Dhabi) could still be processing visa(resident permits) for Nigerians.
So my question is;what the Uganda guy said is it true, could it be only the emirates of Dubai that put a ban on all visas for Nigerians?

Are they trying to renew your visa or just because they ban Nigerian visas they terminate your appointment. Is it that your visa will expire the end of the month?
And it is all emirates not only Dubai.

Go with your bags and travel documents to HIND HUMANITARIAN CITY, Dubai tomorrow. About 100 Nigerians were taken to hotel yesterday in preparation of their evacuation to Nigeria, although some of them have been there for about three to four days. Don't worry, remain there until they attend to you, they will give you food daily.

When you are finally attended to, they will take you to hotel until final approval has been made by Nigerian Embassy for all of you before your evacuation flight to Nigeria. Don't mind the date on the picture below, just go there.

Tell as many people as possible who are willing to return home.

You are an hero, I love your courage. You can always achieve your dream in a better country in the nearest future.

So if I may ask now how does what you just posted has to do with QATAR/UAE general visa enquiries? I know Nigerians do a lot out there, but we are not the only one, there is no country that doesn’t commit crime. Please let’s continue to talk about the things related to the topic in this trend, in order for us to help our fellow Nigerians, thank you for your comprehension.

If you don't mind me asking, Are you here in UAE? Because if you are here, you will understand the level of damages the name Nigeria has done to a lot of people. You cant even read gulf news and khaleej news in peace.
Justifying crimes that we are not only the countey commiting crimes is not so cool, you can't even mention your nationality without them castigating you, "you guys are thieves", We are the only African country with the most crimes here, any other African country commiting crime must have a Nigerian either as a ring leader or a member. We need to change our mentality, almost all the countries are rejecting us. Why will you come from your country and be constituting nuisance and height of it, cultism in another man's land. Well my message to intending comers, if you have an alternative, don't hesitate to explore it because here will be very hard for Nigerians soon as I am talking from experience. Nigerians are not being trusted anymore. So many calls for interviews but the nationality has become a stain.
We keep blaming our government, then using them to commit atrocities in other countries.
We need to change our mentality jare. If you know how many opportunities have missed because I am Nigerian, then you will understand my pain. I will drop the mic here.

It is sickening. I lost an opportunity in Canadian University, Dubai cos of my nationality. Solely cos of that!!! This is because of a covetous Nigerian. We bring up the boring alibi of "we are not the only one" instead of condemnation.

Taofeek and asunmoGGMU have answered best. We need to change our behaviour, it is not helping the good and innocent at all. The look on foreigners face when you mention that you are a Nigerian here is downcasting many times. The conversation and reception just goes south. They become very suspicious if they are nice and polite.
I was in a bus this week, the RTA official came in to check who did not swipe card. Two people in the bus did not swipe and they are both Nigerians. They were speaking our local dialect so I know. And they were still trying to claim right and outsmart the official. Everyone was just looking at them like they fell from outside space. One other guy, I suppose he's a Nigerian left the bus either in disgust or fear. Because police can come and maybe carry all the black guys there. I was really ashamed for them. Their likes are everywhere trying to outsmart others in criminality and it doesn't help the innocent ones. We are tagged together, no visa for Nigerian, Nigerian should not apply. You will see accommodation and job saying African nationality may apply except Nigerians.

The thing is that Nigerians out here has really spoilt the reputation of Nigeria. We know all of these normally happens not only in the UAE but other countries, it really creating problems for us and i am not always happy when I see or hear things like this.

Bro, you have said it all, It is understandable if someone is complaining about the government in Nigeria but you saved up and go to another man's country to have a good life, why indulging in criminal activities and mostly are done by visit visa holders. As someone has said earlier, next time, I am planning my traveling, I need to go to a country where they are doing interview.
A shameful and disgraceful act everytime

now other Africans don't like Nigerians that's why its like Nigerians are been singled out!

it's not like there is fortune to be made in uae!

anyway they reason why they are declining Nigerians visa isn't about hushpuppy

its because of the bloody clash between Nigerians and Pakistanis which two Pakistanis died! (I wont go into details here) but Pakistanis were at fault! but hence the racial card is played! Nigerians are to blame!

finally here in uae Nigerians enter plane carry cultism (, aye men) matter use

Nigerians fighting Nigerians

few months ago Nigerians and Cameroonians clashed 1 cameroonian died! the police was afraid and couldn't stop the fight for almost 2weeks

so not having a job or anything is because of racism not nationality or your bad reputation

everyone knows how dubious Pakistanis are here! but there are alot of Pakistanis in uae govt positions and they are same skin colour and are muslims! alot of cards against us!

so don't condemn yourself Because others are condemning you!

you have a stupid and useless govt ! if not why are you in uae?
your government doesn't want to ask why Nigerians are mistreated all above the world!

I'm in uae live now! I will not allow anyone to judge me based on the actions of others!

Nigeria is a country of 250 million people! Nigerians in uae isn't up to 50,000!

actually all Nigerians are criminals in uae! does it justify why the general stereotyping ?

I have been victimized alot in uae! even to the extend of job opportunity I know one day God will bless my hustle!

This victims card has not worked for years and will not work. We keep confirming the condemnation. We need to tell ourselves to stop confirming the condemnation or racism or whatever name you call it.
We need to stop killing Pakistanis or Cameroonians or anybody. Why go and be fighting and creating nuisance for God's sake? We all know that we have a reputation problem. Confirming that reputation and arguing that we are not the only criminals is not helping the honest, hardworking and innocent ones. The backlash affects all of us. It is not easy to pay for crime, not to mention crime that you did not commit. Our visas are the most expensive because of these kinds of nonsense. Better behaved people get visa on arrival or very cheap. Bans affect all of us, not only the criminals been defended. Our banks in Nigeria put all kinds of restrictions and hurdles because of our defended criminal brethren.

I wanted to ask as well, why won't other Africans hate us, it is solely because we are using our dubious and criminal activities to affect them because they see Africans as bad people and Nigeria which suppose to be the role model for African countries is the head quarter of corruption. We keep saying if government is good, we shouldn't be here, UK, USA, Canada and many developed countries are here working as well, is their country not good.. I hate seeing it every time when people try to justify their actions because of the government, there are countries as well like Nigerians where the citizens behave very well whenever they go. UAE does not favor Africans as we all know but we keep making it worse, for the past weeks, Nigerians has been in crime section of the UAE media, we need to stop all this quick money syndrome, the quest to make money quickly will always lead to this criminal activities. Las Las we all suffer for it. Let's keep justifying their criminal acts.
