How long does a work permit application take to be processed in Nigeria?

TWP visa – The Nigeria Immigration Service normally takes around 10 to 20 working days to process TWP visa applications.

STR visa – The application time depends on the High Commission or the Nigerian mission in the applicant’s home country.

CERPAC – It usually takes around three to six weeks after the application and submission of required documents to obtain the CERPAC. The timeline is, however, subject to regulatory bureaucratic delays.
