How to apply for a Nigerian driver’s licence online

To obtain a Nigerian driver's licence, applicants can now complete many steps online before visiting a Driver's Licence Centre for biometric data collection. Beginning the process requires visiting the official nigeriadriverslicence.org portal. After selecting "DL Application" and choosing "New Driver’s License," applicants must input their driving school certificate number and personal information, ensuring all details match their National Identification Number (NIN).

Next, select a preferred FRSC Driver’s Licence Centre for biometric data capture and schedule an appointment. After booking, make payment via the Remita payment gateway, with options including card, bank transfer, or USSD. Ensure payments are made through the official portal only. Once payment is completed, print the receipt and attend the scheduled biometric appointment at the chosen centre, bringing original documents for verification.
