Consular missions

The following major cities are host to career consular missions. Lagos, Nigeria's largest city, hosts the most number of career consulates, owing to its status as national capital until 1991. While all sending countries have relocated their embassies to Abuja since then, a number of them still maintain their chanceries in Lagos as to serve extension offices of their embassies in Abuja.

All are consulates-general unless otherwise indicated.
