The Nigerian government promotes export-oriented services such as tourism and consultancy through:

1. _National Tourism Development Master Plan_: A comprehensive plan to develop and promote tourism in Nigeria.
2. _Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation (NTDC)_: A government agency responsible for promoting and developing tourism in Nigeria.
3. _Tourism Promotion Fund_: A fund established to support tourism promotion and development initiatives.
4. _Visa on Arrival Policy_: A policy that allows citizens of certain countries to obtain visas on arrival in Nigeria, simplifying travel to the country.
5. _E-Visa Platform_: An online platform that allows tourists to apply for visas electronically.
6. _Tourism Infrastructure Development_: Investments in infrastructure such as hotels, resorts, and tourist attractions.
7. _Marketing and Promotion Campaigns_: Advertising and promotional campaigns to showcase Nigeria's tourism offerings.
8. _Capacity Building and Training_: Training programs for tourism industry professionals to enhance service delivery.
9. _Consultancy Services Development_: Initiatives to promote Nigerian consultancy services in areas like finance, engineering, and management.
10. _Professional Associations Support_: Support for professional associations like the Nigerian Institute of Management (NIM) and the Nigerian Institute of Architects (NIA) to promote consultancy services.
11. _Export Promotion Incentives_: Incentives like tax breaks, subsidies, and grants to encourage export-oriented services.

Providing export incentives like tax exemptions and grants

Offering export promotion services and support for women in exports

Registering exporters and issuing certificates

Facilitating trade and providing trade support services

Implementing initiatives like the Export Expansion Facility Programme (EEFP) to boost non-oil exports
