After getting all my documents ready for Change of Name (affidavit and Newspaper publication). I made inquires on how to sort my international passport change of name and all the response were Abuja.

That use to be the case but not any more. I was about booking my travel ticket when I just decided to email immigration customer service and the response was fab.

You can now do your change of name at any immigration command in Nigeria. All you need do is to write a letter to the PCO with the reason for name change, then attach ur old passport, ur filled form, affidavit, newspaper publication, your husband's valid identification card and pay the fees.

After submission, then approval by the command's PCO before capturing. After capturing your local immigration command will send to Abuja for confirmation which could take few days to two weeks before your new booklet can be issued.

Some people have wasted their time going to Abuja because of lack of information. I just felt it wise to share.
