Effective 25 October 2021, Brazil, South Africa and Turkey were removed from the Nigerian Government’s red list, thereby permitting travelers from these countries to enter Nigeria without first obtaining a waiver from the Nigerian Government. The Government also published a list of approved COVID-19 vaccines and clarified the meaning of the term “fully vaccinated travelers” for purposes of entry into Nigeria.

A Tax Alert prepared by EY's People Advisory Services group, and attached below, provides additional details.
