Tstark:You can get your E-passport in Benin City immigration office in two days for 18,000 Naira. I came back recently from the UK too and I got mine done there on the 2nd of September 2010. If you are any where near Benin then get in touch and I can hook you up with the person and you will get your e-passport in two days. However you will need to have the following ready 1. A copy of your Birth Certificate 2. A copy of your sponsor's/guarantor's identity document .i.e photocopy of the sponsor's International Passport bio data page or driving license 3. Two coloured passport photograph 4. The original copy of your current International Passport ( As this will have to be cancelled immediately they issue you the e-passport) 5. The 18,000 Naira of course 6. A copy of your local government of Origin declaration ( but do not worry if you do not have this as they will sort it out for you there). I hope I have not missed out anything and I also hope this Will be of help to you. |

Tstark: I would have to find out if the contact has any NIS high rank officer at Ikoyi Passport office that could help, though when I did mine Ikoyi was like a war zone and there was no hope I could get it in two working days as I was constantly being told 5 working days is the minimum waiting time for those that pay the normal 9500 Naira bank charges, hence the reason I went to Benin. And I must say it was hassle free as I only submitted the documents requested and paid the 18000 Naira at the office and every other processing ( i.e form filling, bank payment etc) was done and I was expressly sent into the scanning room for my bio data and after two hours of waiting I collected my passport and the old one cancelled at the same time. |
