Visas are required by all except nationals of ECOWAS member countries and those in transit continuing their onward journey within 24 hours, provided they hold confirmed tickets and not leaving the airport.
All children of nationals who require a visa, issued with their own passport, do require a visa.
Visas are valid for a 15-, 30- or 90-day period within three months of date of issue. Both tourist and business visas cost £45 for 15 days, £55 for 30 days and £65 for 90 days.

(d) Pre-paid registered envelope large enough to fit passport, if applying by post. (e) Fee. (f) For a Business visa, a letter from the applicant’s company.
