The rest of the trip for a Nigerian passport, from the arrival form to customs and travelling with children: Mongolia entry requirements.
The details for a Nigerian passport.
Nigeria is neither visa-exempt (consul.mn) nor on the e-visa eligible list (immigration.gov.mn), so apply at a Mongolian embassy or consulate. Host must register you within 48 hours of arrival.
How long it must be valid.
At least 6 months' validity from the date of arrival (FCDO, US State Dept; e-visa portal: 180 days). Canada words it as 6 months beyond your expected departure, so allow 6 months beyond departure to be safe.
