## Evidence timeline

- **Current official route — Eritrean ordinary passports: Nigeria tourism eVisa** (eVisa)
  Nigeria Immigration Service's current F5A tourism service makes an online, emailed tourism visa available to citizens of all countries, subject to the stated waiver exceptions and ordinary passport validity.
  - Use a valid Eritrean ordinary passport with at least six months' validity, photo, return ticket and the listed supporting evidence. F5A is tourism only, single entry and up to 30 days.
  - Apply online, upload documents and pay the fee. Nigeria Immigration Service says the applicant receives the visa certificate by email; this is electronic issuance, not online preapproval followed by border issuance.
  - The source excepts ECOWAS member States and countries with a visa-waiver agreement. It does not identify an Eritrean ordinary-passport exception. Work, residence, special passports, carrier rules, Eritrean departure formalities and final admission remain separate.
