Visa Information for EAIAC 2025 Delegates
Most international delegates attending the 12th East Africa International Arbitration Conference (EAIAC 2025) in Abuja, Nigeria will require a visa.
Who Needs a Visa?
- All non-Nigerian attendees are required to obtain a Business (Single Entry) Visa – F4A for conference participation.
- Citizens of ECOWAS member countries do not need a visa for short-term visits to Nigeria.
Important Visa Update – Effective May 1, 2025:
The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has abolished the Visa on Arrival (VoA) system. All visitors requiring a visa must now apply in advance through the Nigeria e-Visa Portal.
How to Apply:
Delegates must apply online via the official Nigeria Immigration Service portal:

We strongly recommend that delegates begin their visa application process well in advance of travel to allow sufficient time for processing.
