Nigeria is host to 120 foreign diplomatic missions sent by 88 countries. As in most countries, the diplomatic community is centred on the capital, Abuja, where 83 of these missions are based. Missions are also present in Lagos and Kaduna.
Not every mission offers the same services. The list below includes 68 embassys, 19 consulate generals, 15 high commissions, 9 consulates and 9 honorary consulates. An embassy is the main mission and normally sits in the capital; a consulate general or consulate handles visas and passport work for its own region; an honorary consulate offers limited help and usually cannot issue visas.
