I’ll break everything down for you below about how to go about getting the Subject to Regularization Visa for Nigeria (i.e. Nigeria Work Visa, STR).

1
Find your closest consulate

If you’re inside the U.S, there is a Consulate General in New York,a Consulate General in Atlanta, and the Embassy of Nigeria in Washington D.C.

Embassy of the Federal Republic of Nigeria

2
Gather documentation

The Nigeria Immigration Service has a list of required documents here, but it is pretty scant and incomplete. I recommend using the Embassy of Nigeria’s list of required documents for the TWP at this site.

3
Visa fees
  • In addition to the fees that you will have to pay for the visa, you will also have to pay a “processing fee.”
  • Good practice is to call up the embassy or consulate to confirm the fee amounts.
4
Submit materials

Submit your required materials from Step 2 and visa fee from Step 3 to the embassy or consulate you found in Step 1.

5
Receive your visa
  • If you applied in person, go pick it up.
  • If you applied by mail, wait until it gets to you.
