Passport Application

• Applicants for Ghanaian passports must be Citizens of Ghana by birth, naturalisation, registration, adoption or by any anactment. Documentary evidence must be provided in support of any such claim.
• A Ghanaian passport is the only reliable and universally accepted travel and identification document for Ghanaians who travel abroad.
• Issued to Ghanaian citizens only, a Ghanaian passport reflects the identity of the applicant as determined by documentary evidence of citizenship and documents to support identity.
• Children under the age of 16 years must have an individual passport.

Requirement Checklist

Applicants must produce a Police Report, a birth certificate, an affidavit and Proof of Identity.
Passports issued in any country and illegally posted or carried on persons other than holders to the countries of residence of the holders are not valid in those countries. They will also not be validated by our Missions/Embassies when presented since they were not issued by them. Consequently applicants must renew or obtain their passports at their nearest Ghana Missions/Embassies.

This must be supported by duly authenticated documents such as deed polls or affidavit and statutory declarations and marriage/divorce certificate.
