In life, when a man wants to deprive another person of a thing, that man will make demands that the other may never be able to meet. This may be the case of Nigeria and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the visa ban.
Recently, news spread that Nigerians can now get visa to UAE, but there was more to it that you did not see.
We want to show you now.
Now, Nigerian passport holders planning to travel to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) are facing a new mandatory requirement before applying for a visa.
Effective immediately, travelers must obtain a Document Verification Number (DVN) from the Emirate’s verification website.
UAE Non-Refundable Payment
According to details provided on the UAE’s verification platform, Nigerians are required to pay a non-refundable fee of ₦640,000 for document verification.
