The Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) was extracted from the Nigeria Police (NP) in August, 1958. It was at that time referred to as the Immigration Department and headed by the Chief Federal Immigration Officer (CFIO).

The Immigration Department was established by an Act of Parliament (Cap 171, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria) on August 1, 1963 when Alhaji Shehu Shagari was the Minister of Internal Affairs (a position now referred to as Minister of Interior).

The initial Law regulating Immigration Duties was the Immigration Act of 1963 which was amended in 2014 and again in 2015 (Immigration Act, 2015).

The Service has from 1963 been restructured to manage modern migration in line with global, regional and sub-regional political alignments.

The NIS has leveraged the use of Information and Communication Technologies in its operations including:

The introduction of the Machine Readable electronic passport (MRP) in 2007
The creation of a Service website (www.immigration.gov.ng) and portal (portal.immigration.gov.ng)
Global Passport intervention in line with the Federal Government Policy on Citizenship Diplomacy
Forensic laboratory services for the examination of travel documents and monetary instruments
The introduction of the Combined Expatriate Residence Permit and Aliens Card (CERPAC)
