✈️ UK Rolls Out Digital eVisa for Nigerian Students & Workers


Effective From: July 2025

Big news for Nigerians planning to study, work, or settle in the United Kingdom! The UK government has officially introduced Digital eVisas, replacing traditional visa vignettes (stickers in passports) for many categories, including students, skilled workers, and family visas.

What is the UK Digital eVisa?

The Digital eVisa is an online immigration status you can access securely from your phone or computer. Instead of a physical visa label, your details are stored electronically and linked directly to your passport.

This means:

  • No more trips to collect a visa vignette from the embassy.
  • Easier verification by airlines and border officers.
  • Faster processing & reduced paperwork.

Why This is a Game-Changer for Nigerians

At Penzazo Travels, we know how stressful visa applications can be — from delays in receiving documents to last-minute embassy requests. With the UK Digital eVisa, you can:

  • Apply and receive your visa completely online.
  • Avoid the risk of losing or damaging physical visa stickers.
  • Easily update your details if you renew or change your passport.

This upgrade is especially helpful for:

  • 🎓 Students heading to UK universities.
  • 👷 Skilled workers starting new jobs.
  • 👨‍👩‍👧 Families reuniting in the UK.

How to Apply for the UK Digital eVisa

  1. Submit your visa application through the UK Government official website.

  3. Receive your online visa approval link — accessible anytime via your UKVI account.
