Why this verdict

Nigerian citizens are encoded conservatively because the nationality is visible in the eVisa application country selector but absent from the explicit Immigration Agency eVisa-eligible country list used as the source of record for this wave. Use a Mongolian mission or official Immigration Agency confirmation before travel. This destination-wave matrix record is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, short tourism/visitor travel only. Work, study, residence, employment, long-term stay, diplomatic/service passports, official invitations, special documents, extensions, registration duties, carrier handling, border biometrics and Mongolian immigration discretion can change the practical answer. Reconfirm with the Mongolian Consular Department, Immigration Agency or eVisa portal before booking.

Conditional rules

Transit through Mongolia Conditional

Up to 10 days. Mongolia's general visa information says transit eVisa K6 is for transit up to 10 days, and that transit visas can be applied at Mongolian borders if the applicant has onward flight/train ticket and destination-country visa where applicable.
Work, study, residence, employment, business requiring permission, long-term stay or non-tourist purpose Visa required

The Consular Department says visas must match the purpose of visit; other visa types can require visa permission by the Immigration Agency or Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Stay beyond the visa-free, eVisa or issued-visa duration Visa required

The general visa information says stays beyond the visa-exemption arrangement require an appropriate visa before travel; regular tourist visas may be extended only through the Immigration Agency under the published timing rule.
Diplomatic, official, service, UN Laissez-Passer or special travel document Conditional

The Mongolian visa-free list has separate diplomatic/official/service and UN Laissez-Passer rows. This matrix row is for ordinary passports only.
Entry decision, biometrics and accommodation registration Conditional

The eVisa terms say a visa does not guarantee entry, border biometrics are captured, and the host/accommodation provider must register the foreign national online within 48 hours after arrival.
Nationality appears in the eVisa form country selector only Conditional

The eVisa country selector alone was not treated as proof of K2 tourist eVisa eligibility for this wave. Reconfirm with the Immigration Agency or use the Mongolian mission route.
