The National Identification Authority (NIA) has unveiled updated rates for various services related to obtaining the Ghana Card, set to take effect from May 1, 2024.
In a public notice shared on their Facebook page, the NIA cited the implementation of the Fees and Charges (Miscellaneous Provisions) Regulations, 2023 (L.I. 2481), passed by Parliament in February 2024, as the basis for these adjustments.

- NIA District Office: Free of charge
