The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has envisioned the implementation of a leading practice approach known as "Exporting the Border", followed by various countries to validate the information of visa applicants ahead of visa issuance and their arrival to the UAE.

This is due to the UAE Government seeking to reduce various economic, security and health risks to the general public from the incoming workforce population through enhancing the visa issuance process.

As such, the Abuja centre for visa services has been established and inaugurated on the 14th of November 2017. The visa service centre operates from Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, and is located in the following address: Tsukunda Plaza, Second floor, Constitution Avenue, Central Business District, besides Church Gate, Abuja
