New management takes over UK visa application centres in Nigeria
The United Kingdom Embassy in Nigeria announced on Tuesday a change in its visa application centres, with a new supplier taking over their management.
The transition, which is expected to affect some applicants, may result in changes to the locations where documents are submitted and collected.
In a statement via its X (formerly Twitter) account, the Embassy informed the public that affected customers would be contacted directly via email with specific instructions.
“The supplier of our visa application centres in Nigeria is changing. During this transition, some customers may submit and collect their documents from different locations. You will be contacted via email if this affects you,” the statement said.
The visa application centres in Abuja and Lagos, which have been facilitating the process, remain operational in those cities.
Applicants are reminded to book appointments before visiting these centres.
The Embassy advised those seeking further information to visit the official visa application website.
