The British High Commission in Nigeria has announced the opening of a new temporary submission centre for UK visas in Enugu State, starting from September 13, 2023.
This new centre will operate out of the Omedel Luxury Hotel in Independence Layout, Enugu, offering a twice-a-week service.
Applicants will be able to select Enugu as their application location when applying for a UK Visa, in addition to existing locations in Abuja, Lagos, and Port Harcourt.
The Enugu centre will operate as a Premium Location, with a cost of NGN 246,250. This fee includes a Premium Lounge appointment, courier return, SMS notifications, general customer support, and guidance.
The British High Commission will carefully monitor demand for visa services and review and expand the service if there are sufficient volumes. The Enugu centre will be trialed for at least three months to assess its uptake and determine its continuation.
This development provides greater convenience for residents of Enugu and neighboring regions applying for UK visas, as they now have a local submission centre to facilitate the process.
