U.S. Cuts Nigerian Visa Duration from 5 Years to 3 Months Over Reciprocity Policy

In a surprising policy shift, the United States has reduced the duration of non-immigrant visas for Nigerian citizens from five years to just three months. This change, announced by the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria on Tuesday, is said to be in response to how Nigerian authorities treat American visa applicants, a move based on diplomatic reciprocity.

The revised policy affects Nigerians applying for non-immigrant and non-official visas, particularly those traveling for tourism or business — categories that account for a significant percentage of Nigerian applicants annually.

 

According to the embassy, the decision comes as part of efforts by the Trump administration to curb visa overstays. However, it also follows broader U.S. concerns over Nigeria’s immigration vetting process. Visas issued before Tuesday, July 8, will remain valid and are not subject to the new restriction.

 

Previously, U.S. non-immigrant visas for Nigerians had a two-year validity period, which was extended to five years in 2022 following public complaints. The latest reversal to a short three-month period is expected to spark frustration among Nigerian travelers who face a rigorous and often costly visa application process.

 

This development comes shortly after Nigeria was listed among over 30 countries to face new U.S. visa restrictions. President Trump also recently requested a 10% tariff increase on Nigerian exports, citing the country’s growing ties with BRICS and broader national security concerns.
