A statement signed by the Head of Corporate Communications of NIMC, Kayode Adegoke, said the new arrangement, which will go live on 1st April 2023, is in furtherance of the Federal Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy’s directive to streamline passport application, renewal, and issuance processes.
