The United Kingdom has published a set of instructions for Nigerian visa holders on how to obtain their electronic immigration status, commonly referred to as an eVisa, through a UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) online account.
The eVisa is an electronic version of the traditional paper visa and forms part of the UK’s digital immigration system, allowing travelers to prove their right to enter the country without a physical document.
According to the guidance, visa holders must log in to their UKVI account, follow the outlined steps to verify their identity and eligibility, and then download or view the eVisa directly from the portal.
Using an eVisa streamlines the entry process, reduces processing time and paperwork, and enables travelers to access their immigration status from any internet‑connected device.
Nigerians seeking to travel to the United Kingdom are advised to follow the detailed instructions available on the UKVI website, with additional information provided in Punch Nigeria’s coverage of the new procedure.
