Can anyone explain how do you fill transmission fluid ? I can't seem to
find a cap or bolt for it... Does it mean I have to fill it in through
A/T dipstick ?

Like Sly said, through the dipstick tube.
Not just for Nissan either. Almost every vehicle with auto trans is
refilled the same way.

Isn't the tube gonna be covered in oil than ? How do you guys read
correct oil level ?

you fill close to the specified leval and wait a bit for the fluid in the
tube to settle then check the leval, just like checking fluids anyttime, ya
gotta let the vehicle sit awhile or ya get a false reading, common sense
really

Yes, you have to let it settle to get an accurate reading.
