Japa Info helps Nigerians leave the country the legal way, and helps Nigerians already abroad keep up with rule changes in the country they live in.

Who we are

Japa Info is run by an independent Nigerian news and commentary team based in the United Kingdom. Our team already produces daily Nigerian news for audiences on X, Facebook, TikTok, Instagram and WhatsApp. We started Japa Info because the same questions about visas, costs and fake agents kept coming up from our followers.

What we cover

• Visa and immigration rule changes in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Europe, Japan and South Korea
• Student admissions, proof of funds and post-study work routes
• Visa refusals, fraud and fake agents targeting Nigerians
• Overstaying, deportations and status changes people living abroad might miss
• The best time to apply for student and visitor visas

How we check facts

Every news story is based on an official government source or a reputable news outlet, and links to it. We write summaries in our own words and update figures on the guide pages when the rules change. If we get something wrong, we correct it as soon as we're told.

What we are not

Japa Info is an information site. We are not a law firm, a regulated immigration adviser or a visa agent, and we never sell visas, job offers or sponsorship. For advice on your own case, speak to a regulated immigration adviser. See our disclaimer.
