The Dropbox visa processing option for U.S. visa applicants in Nigeria has been discontinued, representing a major shift in the U.S. visa renewal process.
Although the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria has not issued an official statement regarding the change, sources have confirmed that the service, which previously allowed eligible applicants to renew their visas without an in-person interview, has been quietly removed from the appointment booking system.

Applicants trying to schedule visa renewals have reported that the Dropbox option is no longer available on the platform, potentially due to a series of executive orders from former President Donald Trump.
This change comes amid a growing backlog of visa applications, with many applicants waiting months to secure Dropbox appointments before its removal.
Frustration has grown among applicants due to long delays for physical appointments, with some waiting nearly a year.
With the Dropbox option now gone and no available slots in Lagos since January, applicants may be required to travel to Abuja for in-person interviews, reverting to the pre-2020 process.
