Travelex, a global foreign exchange dealer, on
Friday resumed sale of dollars directly to
travellers at N356 to a dollar.
The News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, reports that
the firm’s office inside the Murtala Muhammed
International Airport, Lagos terminal was
besieged by hundreds of travellers.
Some Bureaux de change operators within the
terminal were also selling from N470 to N472 to
a dollar to travellers.
Travelex, which recently got the approval of
the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to sell dollar,
however, gave stringent conditions for the
transaction.

The requirements include presentation of valid
international passport, visa to destination,
Biometric Verification Number, BVN, card,
airline boarding pass and signed copy of
transaction.

The firm also directed that cash would only be
handed over to the traveller at the boarding
gate after security and immigration checks.
According to the firm, these conditions are to
ensure that dollar is sold to only genuine
travellers, and discourage racketeering.
Consequently, some of the travellers were
unable to buy dollars from Travelex because
they could not produce their BVN cards.
