U.S. Limits Nigerian Nonimmigrant Visas to Single Entry, Three-Month Validity

The United States Department of State has updated its visa policy, announcing that most nonimmigrant and non-official visas for Nigerian citizens will now be issued as single-entry visas with a three-month validity period. 

This change takes effect immediately, according to a statement released by the U.S. Mission in Nigeria.

Visas issued before July 8, 2025, will remain valid under their original terms and are not affected by the new rule.
