Default Shell Petroleum in Nigeria requires that I purchase overseas travelers

insurance from Unitrust.Is this a scam? I am Barrister Princewill Emeka, Immigration Lawyer mandated by Shell and Wintech Engineering Limited to assist you on the immigration procedures.



There are three stages involved in the employment of expatriates in NIGERIA

1. Request for cable visa

2. Application for subject to regulation visa (STR VISA)

3. Regularizations of stay.



Once the Comptroller General of the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) has approved the request for cable visa, it will be forwarded to the NIGERIAN EMBASSY who will issue you a S.T.R VISA. The regularization of stay is done here in NIGERIA on your arrival.



Firstly before I proceed with the application to the Nigeria Embassy in your location to give you a STR VISA, I have to first of all get you your Expatriate Quota Approval Letter and Cable Visa from the Nigerian Immigration Service (N IS) in Nigeria.



You are to send me the following required documents so that I can make an application for you with the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) for the approval of your Resident/worker's Permit, Cable Visa (which is a per-requisite for STR Visa) and Expatriate Quota.



1. Proof of vaccination against yellow fever.

2. Medical fitness report (HIV, HEPATITIS B)

3. Overseas travelers insurance policy certificate (OTIP)

4. A scanned copy of your international passport.

5. Letter of Acceptance of Job Offer



THE OVERSEA TRAVELERS INSURANCE POLICY (OTIP) COVER, is a mandatory requirement by the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) this is because the policy is a prove that you are medically fit; to work in Nigeria and also it is a per-requisite to renew your resident/worker's permit every year.



The OTIP should have benefits to the tune of $5,000,000.00(FIVE MILLION US DOLLARS) and the duration is one year, it should include benefits for loss of luggage, repatriations, medical, permanent disability and death etc



The preferred insurance company by the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) is UNITRUST INSURANCE COMPANY LIMITED. UNITRUST INSURANCE COMPANY LIMITED is a Nigerian government owned insurance company located in Nigeria, so you are to look for their agent in your location.



After you have applied for the OTIP policy, you will be issued a certificate. You are to send me a copy of the certificate Issued via electronically as attachment.



Attached is the Nigerian Immigration Services form, you are to go through it carefully before filling it properly.

On confirmation from the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) for of the approval of your cable visa, expatriate quota resident/worker's permit, it will be forwarded to the Nigerian Embassy in your location you will be invited from the Nigerian Embassy in your location for a brief interview for your S.T.R visa.



The form attached is in PDF format, which means you need adobe acrobat to open it.



These are the vital procedures which you must adhere to because it is in accordance to the" Expatriate Statutory Laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria".



Call me immediately you received this mail if you have any question on +234 808 487 8266.
