If you use the known transport companies i.e. Young shall grow, ABC et am, no you won't. Your transport bill will just increase a bit BUT if you want to use Short short, and especially your first time, you go hear am.

I learnt the hard way.

Not my first time. Travel with ABC IFEXand CROSS COUNTRY. just want to know how much it cost to stamp passport at both ends at seme. I'd probably pass idi iroko.

From seme boarder, enter taxi that is shouting "LOME", its #4000 cefa, and its 4hrs drive from seme boarder. when you are getting to the boarder between cotonue and togo, the name is Alaconji boarder, the taxi would stop before the boarder and all passengers would come down and walk pass the boarder for checking. when you reach the boarder, give then 500cefa , then cross and walk straight across the boarder, because your taxi would be waiting for you people after the boarder. then you walk and join your taxi which would now drive straight to togo.

Yes, it covers both entry and exit. secondly, note that exchange rate varies, that amount might increase or reduce.

Yes, when you reach seme boarder, go to their office, tell them you want to open you passport or you say stamp your passport. But from idi iroko would have been the best option. for the transportation to togo boarder, from across seme boarder, cotonue side, you will see cabs going to Lome, join those cabs.

From oshodi under bridge, get a bus going to "Sango". when you reach sango under bridge, cross to the other hand side , ask for buses or taxi's going to "Owode idiroko". they would stop you at the boarder. Then you can now go to the custom office and get you passport stamped, since you want to stamp your passport.

do you know how to read and write french, if yes, then you will be needing some documents which you also have to get from you school. But i would prefer you use the Nigerian bank at seme boarder. no need for the stress of opening an account.
