Frequently asked questions

Which body verifies a Nigerian nursing qualification?

The Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN) holds the register of licensed nurses and issues verification to foreign regulators. The Verifier Agent requests that verification directly as part of the file.

How long does the process take?

Between 3 and 6 months from a complete file. Council verification is often the slowest step in this corridor and can take several weeks on its own.
