“Apart from the El-wak Sports Stadium, which will operate as a Premium Center, registration at all the other locations is free. This intervention has been instituted in response to growing numbers of Ghanaians thronging NIA’s offices nationwide to register for the Ghana Card, particularly, as the deadline for Sim-Card re-registration approaches,” the NIA said in a statement.

According to the statement, the registration points will be open from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, from Monday to Friday.

They will operate alongside NIA’s 276 District and 16 Regional offices.
