Arriving from Nigeria
Airport protocol in India for travellers from Nigeria
In Nigeria it is called airport protocol: someone who meets you, handles the arrival steps with you and walks you out. We do the same at India's airports, booked from Lagos or Abuja.
No India e-Visa for Nigeria passports — apply through an Indian mission (checked 15 Oct 2026)

- Visa
- India's e-Visa is not open to Nigerian passports (checked 15 Oct 2026). Apply for a regular visa — including the medical (MED) and medical attendant visas — through the High Commission of India in Abuja or its Lagos office.
- Flights
- There is no non-stop flight between Nigeria and India today. Most travellers connect through Addis Ababa, Nairobi, Doha or Dubai.
- Yellow fever
- India asks travellers arriving from Nigeria for a yellow-fever vaccination certificate, taken at least 10 days before travel. Without it you may be held in quarantine on arrival.
- Paying
- Pay with a Visa or Mastercard card that allows international payments. Many Nigerian bank cards limit foreign spending — check your card's limit before you pay.
- On the day
- On a paper (sticker) visa you fill in India's arrival steps at the airport. Our host stays with you through the forms and the queue — the officers decide how long it takes.
Visas only on the official site, indianvisaonline.gov.in; yellow-fever rules on India's health ministry site, mohfw.gov.in. We do not arrange visas or vaccinations.
