J anonymousone: You can only obtain back your passport and get the ban reversed if you are able to prove them wrong with respect to the issues why the ban was made. I suggest that you be very honest with them. The following can help; flight iteniary, photos on that day, text messages to friends of your trip, receipts- if you got anything on the airplane or airport or if you used a taxi- call logs they could listen to, signed statement from your contacts indicating that you did travel and the reason for the trip- literally everything and anything. If you have a good immigration record, state it in a cover letter to them. And clean police record. They consider such things. With these you should be fine. If you did not make that trip, it would be a risk appealing. |

First of all, do you have your boarding pass? If you don't have, then your case is a bit difficult. Don't think they are stupid. Before leaving the UK, there is a gate with which you can open with your burden pass. It will record your information. Maybe you used it and back dated when you got to Nigeria. If you have your boarding pass, forget pictures, pictures can't prove anything, there is nothing Nigerian Immigration candidate do, it's only your pass, that's all. then let your lawyer fight the case for you.

It is wrong for them to seize a Nigerian Passport because it's Nigeria Property not theirs. |

raayah: There is no need advising him here. He didn't come to Nigeria at all. I did something like this back in Europe. Portuguese resident permit and I obtained Slovakia visa in Berlin germany. When I returned to Nigeria, I went to Slovakia embassy in Abuja, thinking that since I have their visa, it would be easy to obtain a new one but no... So the op is not telling us something here. Trust me. |

There are several reasons why renewal of a visa could be denied ranging from their claim of illegaly obtained entry /departure endorsements (stamp) to unsatisfactory travel history. Howeve , the fact that your Passport was seized points to the fact that they are convinced that fraud has taken place, in this case, the entry or departure endorsement. Your passport can however, be recovered on application from the office of the Comptroller passport, Immigration hqts, Suaka Village, Airport Road Abuja. Guy, make sure say your hands are clean ooo before you Waka reach there 1 Like |

back dating an entry or exit stamp is mere stupiidity. threats of terrorism has led to more data sharing between airlines and government/security agencies, logging of information at entry/exit points, automated boarding gates, etc, so it's virtually impossible. 4 Likes |

The British High Commission has no right to seize a Nigerian Passport in the first place. If you can prove that you indeed entered Nigeria and left UK. Put your evidence together and sue them in the UK court. |

MadCow1: I thought when you are exiting a country, there will be an exit stamp by that country & when you land in your destination, there will be an entry stamp So how can one back date any? If I leave the Uk today & arrive US tomorrow & then Nigeria next week, how can Nigerian immigration backdate my entry stamp last week, when There is an exit stamp by US on my passport Pls Can you throw more light on this 3 Likes |

On the Nigeria front: Try and get official confirmation from Nigeria that you did enter / leave UK Get airline information (boarding pass etc.) Get personal statements from people that you did work /functions with when you came to Nigeria Pictures if any On your home front: Get Written statement from your wife / friends / Acquaintances in your base, confirming your absence and travel itinerary as far as they are knowledgeable about it. Any information and or evidence when you travelled to UK Airport (e.g. taxi receipts etc.) into the UK and Out of the UK. Gather all the evidence you can substantiating your position. Then put together a letter (with the help of a lawyer) and give the British High Commission a set time to review and reverse their decision, failing which you will take legal action. If they do not acquiesce and your evidence is correct, then consider suing them in the UK courts. I must add that you must make sure you are genuinely honest and telling the truth,. DO NOT FABRICATE ANY EVIDENCE as it will backfire Good luck 1 Like |

harveyspec: Not all countries stamp a passport on departure and UK is one of them. It requires more staff at the border and as part of cost saving/cost cutting measures, they do not have staff at their airports doing this. Except things have changed though. 2 Likes |

They UK can't size a valid Nigerian passport without reason. check yourself. [/quote] In that sense, yes she can can! Seize is not the right way of looking at it, though. They're in possession of it for......... You feel in the gap for what you did or didn't do. Ask em if you can pick it up at the Niger cons. They do it to Americans a lot, and ask you to pick it up later or in Newyork. |

Re: REFUSAL Of Visa And Seizure Of Passport By UK Embassy by MadCow1: 4:46pm On Jul 13, 2015 |
harveyspec: Most European, AMERICAN and Canadian Airports have no immigration stand at the departure terminals.. Reason being they are more interested in stopping people entering illegally than leaving. So NO, you don't get an exit stamp when leaving the UK by Air or even rail.. (Atleast I am sure of those 2). Same for the United States and Canada as well. Infact most European Nation's too. So the only stamps you get on your passport are the entry stamp into the European or American or Canadian Airport and the exit stamp you get is the arrival stamp at the destination country (in this case Nigeria). So what people do is that when they arrive Nigeria, they will pally with the immigrations guys and they will walk them through the check in counter and just hand them their passports unstamped or stamped with a pre-season date depending on the type of scam you are running. It does not hurt Nigeria per se as you can't be deported from your home nation, but it affects the Country you are scamming. It's an old trick but I researched it and found out that the scam is very weak and when it shows, it ends up not being worth it as you lose your Visa, get banned and sometimes deported and your opportunity of ever entering that country again diminishes greatly. Sometimes in the case of the EU, you may never enter Europe again. 2 Likes |
