Nigerian passport holders can travel to several countries without obtaining a traditional visa from an embassy before departure, with some destinations offering visa-on-arrival facilities. Visa on arrival allows eligible travellers to obtain their visa at an approved airport, border crossing or other port of entry instead of securing one from a diplomatic mission before travelling. However, visa-on-arrival rules vary by country, and some destinations require travellers to complete an online pre-registration or obtain prior authorisation before boarding a flight. Current 2026 passport data shows that Nigerians have access to a number of destinations through visa-free, visa-on-arrival and electronic visa arrangements.
