Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has announced that all six newly created regions now have fully completed Passport Application Centres (PACs).
This marks the first time in Ghana’s history that every region will host its own passport office.
The newly completed centres are expected to be commissioned later this month.
In a statement on Sunday, December 7, 2025, Ablakwa noted that the initiative fulfils the government’s promise to decentralise passport services nationwide.
He highlighted that exactly one year after Ghanaians voted for a national “reset,” the ministry has successfully delivered seven new centres in regions that previously had none.
As part of the reforms, passport application fees have also been slashed by 30 percent, from GH¢500 to GH¢350, a move the minister says is aimed at easing pressure on citizens while making the process more accessible.
