The Non-Citizen Ghana Card

The National Identification Authority (NIA) was established in 2006 to register all Ghanaians and foreign nationals permanently resident in Ghana, and issue them with National Identification Cards, popularly known as the Ghana Card.

THE FOREIGNERS IDENTIFICATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (FIMS)

To register all permanently resident foreign nationals, and those who will be in the country for a cumulative period of 90 days or greater, the NIA has developed a separate process to register foreign nationals - this is the Foreigners Identification Management System (FIMS).

The service involves the registration and issuance of Non-Citizen Ghana Cards to eligible candidates at a fee of $120.00 (USD) or its Ghana Cedi (GHS) equivalent. Subsequently, the card is renewed yearly at a fee of $60.00.
