Can one be granted visa if he doesn't know anyone abroad, in countries like Germany, Canada or other European countries ?

yes. for most permanent residence and work visas you dont have to know anyone. same for tourist and student visa

The problem isn't getting the visa but coping in a country you know no one.

Unless you are Igbo, because only Igbos can comfortably cope in a country or land they know nobody.

I guess what you mean is those who have done so should identify themselves and give you feedback?

nothing to do with race and all to do with individuals. if someone worries about such things then they already are failing. you shouldnt care whether you know someone or not abroad, and should only care about the joy that you will get from discovering this new place/culture/environment.

So, yoruba or hausa cannot cope in a country they know nobody

You can cope In any country as long as you have money, when going make sure you have atleast money for rent for atleast 6months Incase you don’t get a job quickly that’s all... Accommodation is the only problem overseas, once that is settle you are good

for real ? Like in countries like Germany, can one be able to land a job that can cater for the accommodation and living expenses like after 3 months ?

And how about resident permit and work permit; can one get it and not be harrased prior to getting it by immigration officials ?

I believe one wouldn't live in the air... You know, many things one considers : would one head straight to an apartment to go rent it without knowing stuff about the place and all that, some other things too ... The idea is where to settle down for even a week before you get to know this and this and do this and this such as catering for accommodation

canada residency permit.requires u to come with 12k cad for a single person enough to last you six months. For many work visa its tied to work offer and most employers will house you for like a few weeks or month. But trust our people to collect tourist visa and japa.

ask on the streets. The common way for nigerians is to get tourist visa and japa. Then look for woman to marry. But today uk, us, germany canada etc do not just give anyhow people those tourist visas anymore as they know u will likely japa. But if ur a frequent traveler, with a good business or job. They would gv u

@kiako I would not advice you to use a tourist visa to Japa, it is really risky, try and get a student or a work or immigrant visa

kiako:

Except you are still a minor (U - 18 years of age) immigrating to the countries you mentioned without knowing anyone there is not something that should give you headache.

What you should be more concerned about are:

1. What is your purpose for wanting to immigrate - Is it for job or for schooling or business?

2. Do you meet the immigration requirements, and

3. Do you have enough funds

Go to the official consular website of whichever country you want to immigrate to, study their different immigration programs and see the one that best suits you.

Below are the countries you mentioned and their immigration links:

Canada - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada.html

German Missions in Nigeria - https://nigeria.diplo.de/ng-en

Many people have relocated abroad without knowing anyone, and many others will. So do not let it stop you.

Cheers!

Seconded.. Kiako, traveling with a tourist visa with a hope of becoming a permanent resident is illegal and it's not advisable at all.

Instead of traveling with a tourist visa, i will advice you to stay in Nigeria and find something to do
