I just came returned from Tsl Lagos and my visa was denied reason they gave me ; there are reasonable doubts as to your intention to leave the territory of the member states before the visa expires. And they also stated that I can appeal against my refusal of visa . I seek for a week vacation as I have 3 weeks leave from my place of work . I submitted all the essential details , including my land document . I have a 7 year old son whom I added hiz pucture . I have been to Maldives, Mauritius , UAE, Kenya, Abidjan, Lomé etc I have never stayed more than 2 weeks in my previous vacations and I am not trying to elope as I have a good job here and my son . Please, can someone aid me out on how to go with the Appeal . Possibly if there’s any EU states that will grant me visa to apply . I did wish to spend my leave in any of the EU states . Thanks 1 Like Marcgrace: 10:59am On May 17, 2024 Thank you! Ikebabay: Thank you! Sure - Cover letter with itinerary/reason for travel/summary of my travel history and how I intend to fund the trip - Coloured photocopies of past visas, entry and exit stamps - Hotel booking (booking.com with free cancellation. You need to add a card though and I added a USD card) - Flight booking (Qatar Airways with 72 hours book and hold. I did not pay for the ticket) - Travel Insurance from AXA Mansard (paid less than 5k for a 1 week duration) - statements. I run a business so I submitted both personal and business statements. I asked the bank to print and they charged about N25 per page. One of the banks said they don't print so I had to print that myself. - Bank reference letters stating how long I have had the and that I am the sole signatory to the s. The reference letter costs roughly N600 per bank - Coloured photocopies of business registration documents and printout of latest tax payment 1 Like Marcgrace: 11:03am On May 17, 2024 Hi @Mak16788 Congrats!

Thank you in anticipation LadyCaplin: 10:25pm On May 18, 2024 Congratulations! Can someone assist by providing the current visa fees in addition to any other costs charged by TLS? I applied in 2022 and I am sure this would have changed from then. Thank you esdajo: 10:50am On May 19, 2024 Visa fees as of April 19 was 123,550. Appointment booking would cost almost 49k then travel health insurance. Just budget like 200k for everything. LadyCaplin: Congratulations!

I applied for a visitor's visa since April 19 and I am yet to get a response. Though I called the embassy last Monday and I was asked to send an email which I did and 2 days later I checked in with TLS and I was told my port was yet to be returned. Now I need that port very urgently for another trip before the visa expires. How do I go about this? cucumbar: 12:51pm On May 19, 2024 Hanihani: Greetings everyone ! Please, I am new here .

Iblessed09: 8:59am On May 20, 2024 Good morning, I mistakenly booked an appointment for Tuesday and the payment failed and now I have been trying to modify it but to no avail. Can I create a different application and choose my required day using same email or i should create another email? Zoey1: 9:05am On May 20, 2024 1. You can’t use same email 2. It won’t allow you attach same port and phone number. 3. Make another application with another email, then call TLS, it will be submitted for you and appointment made. 4. The other one will expire in 10days . 5. I don’t know why they refused to cancel or give an option to do that rather than make applicants go through all these.

Can I still use the same reference I.D I got from website after applying or both have to be different emails. Thank you for your response. Zoey1: 10:50am On May 20, 2024 It won’t accept it either.

You only do a booking on hold just to show itinerary as part of the application documents. KingWarri: What about flight cost? Nonamexxx: 12:35pm On May 20, 2024 Good afternoon Nairalanders. Please I need your help. There are certain documents I want to go submit in (for school) and the school didn't give me an invitation letter. They said I should apply for a tourist visa. The problem is I'm not working and I'm just about to apply for a university. My mother is the one footing everything. Please guys when applying for tourist visa can a sponsor be used? Can I submit my mother's bank statement alongside my own bank statement stating the sufficient amount of money needed for the duration of my stay is in my ? Please let me know. It's kind of urgent. If for a 1 week/10 day visa. Iblessed09: 12:53pm On May 20, 2024 Nonamexxx: Good afternoon Nairalanders. Please I need your help.

Kindly do a check on the school you are in with to avoid fraud issues. Hope dem never send invoice for you to make payment sha? Over to the house...

They just need me to legalize a few things there but the university doesn't handle that. Do you think it's sensible to apply the way I stated?
