Foreign Minister Ablakwa reports that 8,463 people across Ghana received new chip passports through mail service at no extra cost. The government began these free deliveries after launching passport reforms on April 28. Ghana stopped making old biometric passports on the same day to meet international flying rules. All previous passports will work until 2030, when travelers must have the updated version. Anyone can request a modern passport before their current one expires.

The cabinet recently lowered fees for regular chip passports from GHS500 to GHS350. This price change needs approval from lawmakers in the coming months. The fresh documents contain several layers of plastic pressed together for the information page. Officials warn people not to fold these new passports or carry them in pants pockets. The minister shared these updates through social media last Saturday. He described the progress as proof that the current administration keeps its promises to citizens.
