The National Identification Authority (NIA) has announced the introduction of its first 24-hour Prestige Centre in Accra to provide faster, more convenient, and flexible access to Ghana Card registration and related services.

The new facility, located at Labone, will officially commence operations on Saturday, August 1, 2026, marking a significant step towards improving access to identity registration services in the country.

According to a press release issued by the Authority on Thursday, the Prestige Centre will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including weekends, enabling members of the public to access NIA services at any time that best suits their schedules.

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

It noted that the initiative is designed to complement the NIA’s existing registration centres by providing an additional option for applicants seeking greater convenience, flexibility and faster service delivery.

The NIA assured the public that the Labone facility is the first of several Prestige Centres planned across the country as part of efforts to expand access to its services.

It indicated that additional centres would be announced as they become operational, reaffirming the Authority’s commitment to making identity services more accessible, efficient, secure and customer-centred for all eligible applicants.
