Following the switch from biometric to the chip-embedded passport on 28th April, 2025, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has advised applicants who missed their appointments on 28th and 29th April 2025 and applicants who started their application under the old system to visit the respective passport application centres to complete all such pending applications within 90 days.
The Ministry assured applicants with incomplete applications to visit the new portal at passport.mfa.gov.gh to follow the prompt on the platform to complete their pending applications without any charge.
The Ministry in a released statement noted that about 30,000 old applications remain on the old system, out of which 7,900 paid applicants have incomplete applications.
“Applicants whose appointments have already been booked on the old system should proceed to the passport application centres for their biometrics to be captured on the appointed day”, the statement said.
In the meantime, the Ministry is working expeditiously to ensure a seamless transition.
