US Visa-Free Entry for 90 Days: Nigeria Missing from Eligible Countries List

Through a unique agreement known as the Visa Waiver Program (VWP), citizens of 43 nations can now enter the United States for up to 90 days without a visa.
Before leaving on their trip, these individuals must, however, fulfill specific requirements and receive approval via the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA).
The US Customs and Border Protection administers the ESTA online system, which establishes a traveler’s eligibility for visa-free travel under the VWP. Note that travelers must apply for ESTA in advance and that their stay cannot be longer than 90 days.
Nigeria is not on the list of nations, though.

Both business and tourism are permitted uses of the VWP.

The US government further said that residents of a VWP nation will not be eligible for ESTA if:

On or after March 1, 2011, you have traveled to or been in North Korea, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, or Yemen.

1. You traveled to or were in Cuba on or after January 12, 2021.

2. You are a dual national of Iran, Iraq, Sudan, Syria, North Korea, or Cuba.

3. Instead of applying for the VWP, you must apply for a regular B-1/B-2 visitor visa if any of the aforementioned circumstances apply to you.
