Visa & Entry

Saudi passport holders need a visa to enter Nigeria. Apply at the Nigerian Embassy in Riyadh. A tourist visa costs about $160, requires a passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry, two passport photos, completed application form, return ticket, hotel booking, bank statements, and a yellow fever vaccination certificate. Processing takes 5 to 10 business days. Nigeria does not offer e-visas or visas on arrival for Saudi nationals.

Nigeria also offers a Visa on Arrival pre-approval for business travelers, applied for through the Nigeria Immigration Service portal (portal.immigration.gov.ng). Once approved, collect the visa at the airport for $110. This process takes 48 hours and requires a company invitation letter. Yellow fever vaccination is mandatory for entry into Nigeria regardless of origin country. Carry the yellow card.

Direct flights from Jeddah to Lagos and Abuja operate on Saudia and local carriers, with frequencies increasing during Hajj and Umrah seasons due to Nigeria's large Muslim population. Riyadh to Lagos connects through Jeddah, Dubai, Addis Ababa, or Istanbul. Nigeria uses the Nigerian naira (NGN), trading at roughly 415 NGN per SAR 1. Card payments work at hotels and malls in Lagos and Abuja. Carry cash for markets, taxis, and smaller cities. Lagos traffic is intense, and trips across the island can take 1 to 3 hours. Uber and Bolt operate in Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt. Domestic flights connect Lagos to Abuja in 1 hour 10 minutes on Air Peace, Ibom Air, and others (from NGN 50,000, about SAR 120).
