Important Notes

As of late 2023 and early 2024, there have been reports of increased scrutiny and higher refusal rates for Nigerian applicants, particularly for tourist visas. It is highly recommended to apply through reputable airlines (like Emirates or Etihad) or authorized tour operators who often act as sponsors. The processing time can vary and may be longer in some cases. Visa fees can also vary slightly depending on the issuing agency or airline. A 96-hour transit visa may be available for those with connecting flights through UAE airports, subject to specific conditions.
