Understanding the Visa
Visa on Arrival — How It Works
Nigerians don't need to visit an embassy or apply in advance. Your visa is issued when you land, provided your documents are in order:
No embassy visit — visa issued at Velana International Airport
Initial stay: 30 days
Extendable by up to 60 more days — 90 days total
Processing takes a few minutes once entry requirements are met
Passport Validity
Just 1 Month Required
Unlike most destinations that need 6 months of passport validity, the Maldives only requires at least 1 month remaining from your entry date.
DOCUMENT CHECKLIST

THE APPLICATION
Why travellers get turned away or delayed at Malé
With no advance visa application, everything hinges on what you bring and submit before landing. Here's what we check for.
1
Missing Traveler Health Declaration
The THD must be submitted electronically before you fly — not filled out on landing. Missing it can hold up your entry.
2
Unconfirmed Accommodation
Your hotel booking must be pre-paid or confirmed — a rough plan isn't enough at immigration.
3
Insufficient Proof of Funds
Your bank statement needs to clearly show funds sufficient for your intended stay.
4
Missed COVID-19 Testing Window
If a PCR test is required, it must be taken within 96 hours of departure — timing this correctly matters.
