As of August 16th, 2024, the Embassy has resumed accepting directly visa applications. The contract with VFS having been terminated, users are advised not to send their visa applications to the latter. Instead, they are to send their visa applications directly to the Embassy. An interim period running up to August 31st, 2024 has been agreed with VFS, during which VFS will process remaining applications and may accept new ones. At the end of the said period, VFS will hand over to the Embassy all applications and related documents, and their sites will no longer be accessible to Niger visa applicants.
