Ethiopia, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have recently enforced stringent changes to their visa policies for Nigerian passport holders. These changes have revoked earlier conveniences like visa-on-arrival, e-visa options, and trouble-free application procedures that benefitted Nigerian travelers. The newly enforced rules will significantly impact Nigeria’s international mobility, logistics of travel, and bilateral relations with these countries. This radical policy change was met with mixed reactions, with travel experts and affected Nigerian travelers highlighting the implications for diplomatic relations and travel convenience.
