Nigerian passport, NIN and BVN help in the UK, coordinated for you
Nigerian Docs UK finds out exactly what you need, agrees your quote with a vetted UK-based agent, confirms your price and appointment date in writing, and stays with you until the document is in your hand. You attend the High Commission once, for biometrics, and we prepare the application, book the appointment and follow it through.
Passports: Our fee from £300, plus the official fees you pay directly: $150 to the NIS (plus bank charges) and £20 to the High Commission.
Your passport is dispatched within 10 working days, or we refund our coordination fee.
This applies to new applications only. Your exact fee and appointment date are confirmed in writing before you pay anything.
Independent coordination service. Not the Nigeria High Commission, NIS or NIMC. Official fees are paid to the government directly, and you can complete the process yourself using the official portals linked below.
We help with new applications only. We cannot check or speed up an application that is already with NIS. To follow its progress, see how to track an application.

Do you need an agent?
A comparison of doing it yourself and having it coordinated, including what each costs.
How it works
- 1. You send us a message. The person who will handle your case replies with the document checklist for your case and a reference number for your enquiry.
- 2. We establish what your case requires: a renewal, a child's first passport, a replacement for a lost passport, a NIN, a BVN, a visa document check or a combination. We check your documents before anything is submitted.
- 3. We agree your quote with our agent and confirm the price and your appointment date back to you in writing.
- 4. You pay and attend your appointment. We brief you the day before so that you arrive with everything the High Commission requires. We then track your passport or other document until it reaches you.
Your passport is dispatched within 10 working days, or we refund our coordination fee.
The High Commission's current passport pages do not state a processing time. For the passport services we coordinate, we guarantee dispatch within ten working days, counted as set out below, and refund our coordination fee if we miss it. When we quote, we confirm in writing whether your case qualifies.
How it is counted: The clock starts on the working day after your documents are complete and your coordination fee is paid, and stops on the day your new passport is dispatched to you. The period is no more than ten working days. When we quote, we confirm in writing that your case qualifies; the rare cases that cannot be done in ten days by anyone (for example where a document must first be obtained from Nigeria) are told so before you pay anything.
If we miss it: If we miss it, we refund your coordination fee in full. Official fees paid to the Nigeria Immigration Service or the High Commission are outside our control and are not refundable by us.
Fair exclusions (incorrect documents, a missed appointment, an official outage) are listed on each passport page.
The official fees, correctly
These are the government's fees, paid to the government. Several widely-read guides still quote old figures; these were checked against the Nigeria High Commission and NIS notices on 15 September 2026.

|---|---|---|
| NIS passport fee, 32-page, 5-year | $150 | Official fee, paid in US dollars on the NIS portal (passportintl.immigration.gov.ng), exclusive of bank charges (Interior Ministry, 7 September 2026). NIS quotes $162 as the amount payable (11 September 2026). |
| NIS passport fee, 64-page, 10-year | $230 | Official fee, paid in US dollars on the NIS portal (passportintl.immigration.gov.ng), exclusive of bank charges (Interior Ministry, 7 September 2026). NIS quotes $242 as the amount payable (11 September 2026). |
| Nigeria High Commission administrative fee | £20 | UK postal order payable to the Nigeria High Commission, London, or e-payment. |
| High Commission fee for lost, stolen or damaged passport | £150 | UK postal order. Several well-known guides still say £250; the High Commission's own page says £150. |
