NIS assures uninterrupted passport services during centralised printing shift



The Nigeria Immigration Service has assured Nigerians that passport services remain available nationwide despite the relocation of passport printing operations to its Central Personalisation Centre at the Service Headquarters in Abuja.The service said the move was purely operational and would not affect the processing and issuance of passports at any passport office across Nigeria or designated Nigerian embassies and consulates.The NIS on its X handle on Friday explained that only the printing stage of passport production had been centralised, while applicants would continue to access passport services at their preferred offices.“The migration of production in passport offices to the Central Personalization Centre in Service Headquarters, Abuja is purely operational and does not in any way stop the processing and issuance of passports at any passport office within the country or designated Nigeria’s Embassies or Consulates,” the Service stated.It added that passport offices across the country would continue to function normally despite the change in the printing arrangement.Related NewsTinubu welcomes Nigeria’s membership into World Energy CouncilNigeria’s democracy nosediving, Reps group warnsNYSC warns against fake redeployment notice circulating online“All passport offices across the country and other designated centres will continue to operate without hindrance; only printing of passports has been centralised at Service Headquarters, Abuja,” the NIS said.The service assured applicants that measures had been put in place to ensure that printed passports reached various collection points within a reasonable timeframe.“Adequate arrangements have been made by the Service to dispatch produced passports to various passport offices within a two-week time frame,” it stated.The NIS urged Nigerians seeking passport services to continue visiting their preferred passport offices for applications and other related processes.The service said the centralisation of printing operations was part of efforts to improve coordination, efficiency and service delivery within the passport production system.
