‎The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) has announced the rollout of an enhanced passport tracking feature.

‎The update posted by the Service on X on Thursday followed rising public clamour over delays in passport issuance and collection.

‎According to the Service, it had observed that hundreds of passports produced had remained uncollected, leading to increasing complaints from applicants.

‎The updated system introduced a new status to the existing passport tracker.

‎The feature is intended to give applicants clearer visibility on when their passports are ready for pickup or courier delivery, thereby reducing uncertainty around processing timelines.
