      Pope Leo XIV pays tribute to victims of Ghana helicopter crash

      FIFA confirms dates for Ghana’s September World Cup Qualifiers

      ADVERTISEMENT

      In December last year, the sector Minister Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey proposed to Parliament’s Committee on Subsidiary Legislation the need to review the fees to enable the ministry to curb losses in the printing of passport booklets.

      ADVERTISEMENT

      The Minister of Foreign Affairs said, “It is time for Ghanaians to pay realistic prices for passports they acquire to travel beginning next year. 

      According to her, due to the financial constraints prevailing in the economy, it had come to a point where it was no longer “sustainable” for the state to continue to subsidise passports.

      “Ghanaians pay just about GH¢100 for a passport yet to produce one passport booklet it costs GH¢400 which means that for every passport that an applicant acquires, the government has to put in GH¢300 and this is not sustainable,” she said.

      No objection in Parliament

      A source within the leadership of the Parliament’s Subsidiary Legislation Committee who confirmed the increase to Joy News said his committee worked on the Regulation when it was laid.

      He explained that being a Regulation and not a Bill, it became law after 21 days when no objections were raised.

      Passport application charges in other West African countries

      According to the Committee on Foreign Affairs report on the 2024 budget estimates of the ministry, Ghana’s passport fees stand at $7.7, marking the lowest rate in the West African sub-region.

      A comparison reveals that Cameroon charges $180, Guinea $57, Guinea-Bissau $65, Burkina Faso $80, and Nigeria $54.29 for passport services.
