The Nigerian government, under President Bola Tinubu’s administration, has announced an increase in passport fees to maintain the quality and integrity of the travel document. The new fees, effective September 1, 2024, will see the 32-page passport booklet with a 5-year validity rise from N35,000 to N50,000, while the 64-page booklet with a 10-year validity will increase from N70,000 to N100,000.
