The Federal Government has approved three types of fees for Nigerians to pay for the verification of their National Identity Numbers (NIN) to expedite the processing of their passports.

The new arrangement, which went into effect on April 1, was in response to the government’s directive to streamline the passport application, renewal, and issuance processes.

Nigerians seeking such verification at home will now pay N1000, while those in African countries will pay $5 and those from other countries will pay $15.

A statement from Mr. Kayode Adegoke, Head of Corporate Communications of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) confirmed that the development was a joint framework with the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS).

He explained that it was meant “to significantly improve the quality of service, accuracy, and speed of passport services through the timely verification of the National Identification Number (NIN).”

“This new arrangement is in furtherance of the Federal Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy’s directive to streamline passport application, renewal, and issuance processes,” Adegoke added.

According to him: “NIMC and NIS have agreed on a revised applicant journey that will significantly improve the speed of passport issuance/re-issuance and reduce the traffic visiting the NIS office(s). “

“The NIN service, fees, and the new NIS process will go live on 1st April 2023.”
