The National Identification Authority (NIA) has launched its first 24-hour Prestige Centre in Accra, introducing a premium service aimed at providing faster, more convenient and flexible access to Ghana Card registration and related services.

The new facility, located at Labone, will officially begin operations on Saturday, August 1, 2026. According to the Authority, the centre will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including weekends, allowing members of the public to access NIA services at their convenience.

The NIA explained that the Prestige Centre is a fee-based service, with all services attracting approved charges.

It said the initiative is designed to complement existing registration centres by providing an additional option for applicants who require greater convenience, flexibility and faster service delivery.

In a statement signed by the Head of the Corporate Affairs Directorate, Williams Ampomah Emmanuel Darlas, the Authority said the Labone facility is the first of several Prestige Centres expected to be established across the country.

The NIA added that details of additional centres will be announced once they become operational.

The Authority reaffirmed its commitment to making identity services more accessible, efficient, secure and customer-focused for all eligible applicants.
