Japan raises visa fees for Nigerians and other foreigners by 400%

Japan has sharply increased visa application fees for Nigerians and other foreign nationals, raising costs by up to 400 percent for several categories of visas. According to Japan’s revised tariff, the standard single‑entry visa fee has risen from 3,000 yen to 15,000 yen for most foreign applicants, including Nigerians. This represents a fivefold increase in the amount payable per application. Multiple‑entry and double‑entry visas have also recorded significant hikes, with fees moving from about 6,000 yen to considerably higher levels under the new structure. Transit visas, which previously attracted a lower charge, now come with increased costs as well, although they remain cheaper than single‑entry visas. In addition to the higher visa fees, applicants using visa application centres will continue to pay separate service charges and, in some locations, courier fees for document transfer between Lagos, Abuja, and the embassy.

FG begins plans to evacuate Nigerians from South Africa over renewed attacks

She disclosed via her X handle that the figure is expected to rise as more people come forward, stressing that Nigerian lives and businesses in South Africa “must not continue to be put at risk.” The latest concerns follow renewed anti foreigner protests and incidents in parts of Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Cape Town and KwaZulu Natal.

Nigerians in Middle East send distress calls as FG halts pilgrimage

Escalating violence in the Middle East has disrupted Nigerian pilgrimage plans and triggered distress calls from citizens living and working in the region. The Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission has announced the immediate suspension of all pilgrimages to Israel, citing the worsening security situation and the state of emergency declared by Israeli authorities. Executive Secretary Bishop Stephen Adegbite said the decision covers both government organised and privately arranged trips until conditions improve. He explained that the safety and welfare of pilgrims remain the top priority and urged intending pilgrims and operators to exercise patience while the Commission closely monitors developments. The suspension came shortly after the conclusion of the 2025 Main Pilgrimage to Israel and Jordan, during which over 4,000 pilgrims were successfully airlifted, with the last batch arriving Lagos on March 3. Adegbite appealed to Nigerians to pray for peace […]
