Nigerian consulate in Columbia, South Carolina
Nigeria keeps no consulate in Columbia, and the Consulate General of Nigeria in Atlanta is where the paperwork goes.
Which consulate covers Columbia
What decides this is the state line, not the map. South Carolina belongs to Atlanta and there is no choosing another office.
It is 223 miles from Columbia, roughly 4 h 16 min, so it pays to bundle errands into one trip.
Other South Carolina places in the same position: Charleston (311 mi), Greenville (139 mi), North Charleston (305 mi).
From Columbia, without travelling
Start with what can be settled from home:
- Passport renewal, started on a website, with the counter only as the last step
- Dual citizenship rules, worth reading before you take the US oath, not after
- National Identification Number, issued by the NIMC and needed before any passport application
