The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration has issued notice for passport applicants who paid for their applications before April 1, 2024.
Applicants who have not yet completed their biometric capture are now required to visit their designated Passport Application Centres (PACs) to finalise the process by October 18, 2024.
This directive, detailed in a press release dated September 18, 2024, underscores the necessity for applicants to complete their biometric data collection to ensure their applications are processed.
The Ministry emphasises that any applications pending biometric capture after this deadline will be deemed invalid.
The release also highlights the importance of adhering to this timeline to avoid complications or delays in receiving passports.
The Ministry is urging all affected applicants to act promptly to prevent their applications from being rejected.
“Passport applications submitted under the previous fees of GHC100 and GHC150 will be invalid after this deadline. This follows an upward revision in passport fees, in line with the Fees and Charges (Miscellaneous Provisions) Regulations, 2023 (L.I 2481), which came into effect on April 1, 2024,” the release said.
“Applicants are advised to act swiftly to avoid their applications being invalidated,” it added.
