Ghana Passport Website Temporarily Down Over Technical Issues

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has announced that its official passport application website, passport.mfa.gov.gh, is temporarily unavailable due to technical issues.

In a notice issued on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, the Ministry informed passport applicants and other customers who may be experiencing difficulties accessing the platform that the website is currently down.

The disruption means members of the public attempting to access the online passport application platform may be unable to do so until the technical problem is resolved.

According to the Ministry, its technical team is actively working to restore the website. The team is collaborating with the National Signals Bureau (NSB) as part of efforts to identify and resolve the problem as quickly as possible.

The Ministry did not provide a specific timeline for when the website would be fully restored. However, it assured the public that another update would be issued once the technical difficulties have been resolved.

The Foreign Affairs Ministry also apologised to customers for the inconvenience caused by the temporary outage.

The notice was directed to all media houses to help inform the public about the disruption and prevent applicants from being unnecessarily concerned about difficulties accessing the passport website.

Members of the public who are currently unable to access passport.mfa.gov.gh are therefore being advised to await further communication from the Ministry on the restoration of the service.
