Common rejection reasons

Common NG rejections: (1) Authorization de Entrada from EG MFA is the real bottleneck — usually denied without strong oil/diplomatic sponsor; (2) Direct embassy in Abuja but processing remains slow; (3) Spanish-language documentation; (4) Even with significant Nigerian-EG flow, strict scrutiny; (5) Oil-sector workers need full corporate sponsorship + security clearance; (6) Past EG overstays heavily flagged; (7) Maritime/oil sector security clearance for technical workers.
