The United States Drop Box Visa Policy in Nigeria has not been suspended, the US Ambassador to Nigeria, Richard Mills Jr., has stated.
Mills, who spoke when he paid a courtesy visit to the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu, at the Tafawa Balewa House, Abuja, at the weekend, explained that whenever there is a change in administration, policies are reviewed.
The envoy assured that the position of the new US Government on Drop Box Visa system and others would be known in due course.
Drop box process allows applicants, who had been previously issued visas, to renew their visas without a face-to-face interview at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate.

At the meeting, Amb. Odumegwu-Ojukwu had expressed the concerns of Nigerians over the likely suspension of the Drop Box Visa System of the US Government.
In a statement issued on Monday February 16, 2025 by Odumegwu-Ojukwu’s media aide, Magnus Eze, the minister urged Washington DC to reconsider its possible suspension of the Drop Box Visa Policy such that Nigerians who had been travelling to the US for genuine reasons would not have to suffer unduly in procuring US Visa.
