The Federal Government has announced an increase in the fees for Nigerian passports to uphold quality and ensure integrity.
The new fee for the 32-page Passport booklet, which has a validity of five years, previously priced at Thirty-five Thousand Naira (N35,000.00), it will now be Fifty Thousand Naira (N50,000.00) only.
The fee for the 64-page Passport booklet with a validity of 10 years has been raised from Seventy Thousand Naira (N70,000.00) to One Hundred Thousand Naira (N100,000.00).
It was, however, noted that the fees for those in the Diaspora will remain the same.
This increment will take effect from September 1, 2024.
