NOSC opens submissions for Nigeria’s 98th Oscars entry

The Nigerian Official Selection Committee (NOSC) has announced the commencement of submissions for Nigeria’s 98th Oscars entry in the best international feature film category at the 98th Academy Awards.

In a statement on Monday afternoon, the committee disclosed that filmmakers can submit their qualifying films between August 13 and September 12, 2025, via the official NOSC portal.

According to the NOSC, eligible films must be feature-length, produced outside the United States, and contain at least 50 per cent of dialogue in a language other than English, with Nigerian Pidgin accepted. They must also include accurate English subtitles and meet technical specifications approved by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS).

“The selected film will represent Nigeria at the Oscars on March 15, 2026, in Los Angeles, and will be broadcast live to over 200 territories worldwide,” the statement added.

The NOSC, which is the sole body recognised by AMPAS to select Nigeria’s 98th Oscars entry, urged interested filmmakers to review the full eligibility guidelines and submission details on its website.
