The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has announced nine centres for the physical verification of credentials and travel documents of foreign-trained Nigerian graduates for the 2026 Batch ‘C’ Stream I service year.
The exercise will hold from September 8 to 12, 2026, for prospective corps members whose documents are yet to be physically verified.
The centres are located in Enugu, Bauchi, FCT, Kano, Lagos, Osun, Rivers, Sokoto and Adamawa.
The NYSC directed affected candidates to report strictly on the date, time and venue indicated on their verification slips to avoid overcrowding.
Prospective corps members are required to present the original copies of all credentials and travel documents uploaded during registration. Medical graduates must also present their professional licences, registration certificates and other relevant documents.
The scheme further directed candidates to submit original Evaluation Letters issued by the Federal Ministry of Education at the NYSC Headquarters in Abuja and upload acknowledged copies online.
The NYSC warned that only candidates physically verified and cleared with their credentials will be deployed, exempted or excluded from national service.
The verification is mandatory for eligible foreign-trained Nigerian graduates participating in the 2026 Batch ‘C’ Stream I service year.
