The National Identification Authority (NIA) has begun issuing Ghana Cards to children aged 6 to 14 years across selected districts in the country, effective today, Monday, October 6, 2025.
According to a statement signed by the Head of Corporate Affairs, Williams Ampomah E. Darlas, the exercise will take place at the designated registration points — specifically the schools where the children were originally registered.
The first phase of the nationwide exercise will cover 56 districts, spanning all 16 regions, with the remaining districts expected to follow in the coming days.
“To complete the process, each child/applicant must be physically present. Parents and legal guardians are required to accompany their children and present the Form A or receipt issued on the day of registration,” the statement said.
The NIA emphasized that with all backlogs of unprinted Ghana Cards now cleared, the Authority is fully prepared to deliver a smooth and efficient exercise.
It further assured the public that details regarding the resumption of new registrations for children within the same age bracket will be announced in due course.
