Thursday, December 05, 2013Omoba
The British High Commission in Nigeria on Wednesday
announced a new system of visa application whereby U.K. visa would be paid for
online in U.S. dollars.
In a statement signed by its Press and Public
Affairs Officer, Mr Rob Fitzpatrick, the commission said that the new system
would begin on Dec. 16.
“From Dec. 16, 2013, all applications for U.K. visa must be completed using our
online application system and paid for online in U.S. dollars.
“Payment can be made using a Verve debit card, Visa
or MasterCard credit or debit cards or the e-wallet PAGA. “The move to online application and payment will
deliver a streamlined process.
“It is consistent with a wider global trend to
online transactions and payments,’’ it said.
The commission added that
the new system had met the requirements of the U.K. Government’s Digital by
Default Initiative
