The Embassy of Nigeria, Doha is a Nigerian diplomatic mission in Qatar established in 2013 and currently headed by ambassador Yakubu Abdullahi Ahmed.
[1] The embassy of Nigeria in Qatar was created in 2013 to foster good bilateral relationship between the two countries.
The embassy provides various services which include passport services (including Tourist, Business, Temporary permit, Diplomatic/Official and Transit Visa), travel visas and attestation and legalisation of documents of individuals and companies.
In February 2022, the International Center for Investigative Reporting (ICIR) reported that "Nigerians residing in Qatar have continued to face difficulty acquiring a Nigerian passport as the embassy in Doha does not have the machines to process the travel document, but relies on the passport intervention team in the United Arab Emirates".
The situation resulted in backlog of applications submitted and many Nigerian expatriates risk losing their jobs, blocking of bank accounts and even deportation.
