Expatriate FAQ

Most senior roles offer a "split salary" arrangement. A portion of the salary is paid locally in Nigerian Naira (NGN) for daily living expenses, while a significant portion is paid in US Dollars (USD) or Indian Rupees (INR) to an offshore or home-country account.

This structure is standard practice for Indian expatriates working in Nigeria and ensures financial stability both locally and back home.

Yes, most expatriate packages include fully furnished, secure housing (often in gated communities) and a dedicated car with a driver. This ensures a comfortable and safe transition for both the professional and their family.

Client and Ascentech handle the entire end-to-end process. We manage your Subject to Regularization (STR) visa application and the subsequent CERPAC (Combined Expatriate Residence Permit and Allies Card) documentation to ensure you are fully compliant with Nigerian immigration laws.

Nigeria has a vibrant and well-established Indian community in Lagos, PH, Kano, Abuja and Ibadan. There are numerous Indian social clubs, temples (such as the ones you may have visited in Kerala), and international schools including the Indian Language School that follow the Indian curriculum.

Major cities like Lagos offer high-quality private healthcare facilities. For families, there are several top-tier international schools that offer British, American, and Indian (CBSE) curricula, ensuring a smooth educational transition for children.

Expatriate contracts typically include annual or bi-annual round-trip airfare to India for the employee and their family. Lagos has excellent international flight connections to major Indian cities including Mumbai, Delhi, and Chennai, making regular travel back home convenient and accessible.
