Visa-Free & Visa-on-Arrival Holidays for Nigerian Passports
By Cart & Go Editorial TeamPublished Updated 5 min read
Key takeaways
- Visa-free still means a return ticket, accommodation and proof of funds.
- Kenya is visa-free but needs an eTA registration before you fly.
- Always confirm rules with the destination's immigration authority, as they change.
Visa-free: Barbados, Dominica, Fiji and Cape Verde
Barbados and Dominica currently allow stays of up to six months and Fiji up to four months for Nigerian passport holders. Cape Verde is also visa-free, with a shorter stay that you should confirm before booking.
Visa on arrival or eTA
- Maldives: free visa on arrival, up to 30 days
- Mauritius: visa on arrival, up to about two weeks
- Kenya: no visa, but register for the eTA before travel (up to 60 days)
- Rwanda: eVisa or visa on arrival, up to 30 days
Destinations to plan carefully
Seychelles has restricted holiday visas for Nigerian applicants since 2023, so get written eligibility confirmation first. South Africa's eVisa is limited to arrival via Johannesburg, so direct Cape Town flights need a standard VFS application. Browse our tour packages with visa notes on every destination.
