In a bid to streamline immigration procedures and enhance the travel experience for Nigerians and international visitors, has introduced a more efficient and digital approach to acquiring essential travel documents. Travelers heading to or leaving Nigeria can now obtain their Landing and Exit Cards online, up to 72 hours before their scheduled flight.
This development, which aligns with Nigeria’s ongoing push toward digitizing public services and reducing bureaucratic delays, is expected to bring immense relief to both citizens and foreign nationals alike. Traditionally, travelers were required to fill out paper-based forms upon arrival or departure at Nigerian airports, a process that often resulted in long queues, confusion, and in some cases, missed flights. With KIIN360’s digital platform, travelers can now complete this process in advance, eliminating the need for manual paperwork at the airport.
The Landing and Exit Card, an important requirement for immigration clearance, contains critical information such as personal details, flight data, and contact addresses within or outside Nigeria. By digitizing this procedure, KIIN360 not only enhances compliance with the Nigerian Immigration Service’s protocols but also ensures that accurate and timely data is captured for security and statistical purposes.
This service is accessible to secure portal, allowing users to fill in and submit their information online from the comfort of their homes or offices. Once completed, the digital card is saved and can be presented to immigration officials during departure or arrival formalities. The online option is available up to 72 hours before the flight time, giving travelers ample flexibility to finalize their travel documentation well ahead of time.
In recent years, Nigeria has made significant strides toward improving the ease of travel and adopting tech-driven solutions across its border control systems. The integration of this online card issuance into pre-travel routines reflects a broader commitment to adopting international best practices while easing pressure on airport personnel.
According to data from the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), over 16 million passengers passed through Nigerian airports in 2023, highlighting the need for efficient processing systems. With KIIN360’s digital Landing and Exit Cards, travelers can now avoid unnecessary delays and confusion at points of entry and exit.
This initiative is also a strategic move in line with the Federal Government’s digital economy policy, aimed at boosting e-governance, promoting transparency, and facilitating a user-friendly interface for service delivery. For travelers, the message is clear: the days of last-minute scrambling for immigration forms at the airport are over.
They urges all travelers to take advantage of this innovative service to save time, ensure accuracy, and enjoy a smoother experience when flying into or out of Nigeria.
