The Government of Ghana has officially inaugurated a new passport application centre in Bolgatanga, the capital of the Upper East Region, aimed at making passport services more accessible to citizens.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration has encouraged the public to take advantage of the online passport application system before visiting the centre. This system is designed to streamline the application process, reduce waiting times, and ensure a smoother experience for applicants.
The opening of the Bolgatanga centre is part of a broader government initiative to decentralize passport services, easing the burden on the main passport office in Accra and providing efficient services across the country. Citizens in the northern regions can now complete applications, renewals, and other passport-related procedures closer to home.
Officials have advised applicants to follow all guidelines and requirements carefully to avoid delays. Detailed information on the application process and access to the online portal is available on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ official website.
This new facility is expected to improve service delivery, reduce congestion, and enhance convenience for residents in Bolgatanga and surrounding areas, reflecting the government’s commitment to efficient public service.
