Our guide to the Nigeria visa from Tunisia
To enter Nigeria, travellers holding a passport from Tunisia need an e-Visa, applied for online before departure on the official Nigerian portal. Intermediary websites are not necessary.
Tunisians planning a tourist stay in Nigeria must go through an e-Visa application, ideally completed before booking non-changeable tickets. Neither the fee nor the processing time is given in this guide: the official portal and Nigeria’s diplomatic mission covering Tunisia remain the only references.
Is a visa necessary?
Yes. A Tunisian passport does not allow entry to Nigeria without prior authorization: you must obtain an e-Visa before travelling. The application is electronic, and the authorization must be granted before boarding; show it, printed or on your phone, to the airline and then at immigration control.
How much does an e-visa for Nigeria cost from Tunisia?
The official fee for an e-visa for Nigeria is not published in a source we can verify. Check the amount on the official portal before paying anything, third-party sites often add service fees on top.

Documents and fees

Where do you apply for a visa for Nigeria from Tunisia?
An e-visa for Nigeria is filed entirely online: there is no counter to visit and no file to hand in. The only address that matters is the official portal.
- The application, the supporting documents and the payment all go through the official portal, from any country.
- Lookalike sites copy the portal’s name and layout, then resell the same application with a margin. Check the domain before you type in a passport number.
- The authorisation arrives by email. Keep a printed copy, some airlines ask for it at boarding.
Using an online service
You never have to use an intermediary. If you would rather have a service fill in and file the application online for you before departure, iVisa does it for a service fee, charged on top of the official fees. It does not change the decision.

You live in Tunisia on another passport?
The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Tunisia but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

Before you fly, and at the border
Passport validity, border checks, minors, overstays: the rules common to every trip are gathered on our travel tips page. Formalities before you leave
Common mistakes
The costliest trap is going through a commercial website that presents itself as official and adds extra charges: check the portal address and the nature of the fees billed. Other typical mistakes are a rejected photo, details that do not match the passport and leaving before the decision has arrived.
