Circular on the Framework for the Enrolment of Nigerian Banks Customers in Diaspora for BVN Issuance

The Central Bank of Nigeria has released guidelines for Nigerian banks' customers in the diaspora to obtain a Bank Verification Number (BVN). Customers can either visit offshore branches of Nigerian banks or use a consultant, Online Integrated Solutions (OIS), which will establish stations for data capture and BVN generation at a fee. The BVN is intended to be linked to customers' accounts, with the process facilitated by NIBSS.
