The National Identification Authority (NIA) has announced that the Ghanaian populace can now register for the new Ghana Card online at the comfort of their homes.
The announcement which was made through their official Facebook page has a link to the new online process for registering for the new Ghana Card.
Although the mass registration is ongoing, the NIA has given the opportunity to several others who find it convenient to do the registration through their online Ghana card registration portal https://register.nia.gov.gh/.
Since the NIA started mass registration of citizens for the Ghana card, some people tend to sleep over the registration centers several hours before officials of NIA set up their equipment for their daily work routine.
This has however been a futile exercise as many who devised that strategy has been disappointed because of the slow pace of the registration.
The most talked-about challenge has to do with the network which slows the process and it leaves people standing in long queues for hours without getting their turn to register.
However, those who have been lucky enough to eventually get their Ghana Cards complained of waiting for several days before finally being handed the cards.Read: List of where to register your Ghana Card for free.
These and other challenges are the reasons why the NIA has introduced an online portal to ease the stress people go through at registration centers.
Visit the Ghana Card registration portal by clicking this link: https://register.nia.gov.gh
For first-time users, create an account and verify your phone number.
You’ll receive a text message with a secret code. Enter the secret code to continue to the application dashboard.
When on the dashboard, click on “Start New Application” to be sent to a page to begin the information collection process.

You will be asked to enter your height, eye color, and other physical identifiers on the next page. ( If you don’t know the accurate value, don’t worry, during your registration, the NIA will measure you for the correct value). Read: List of where to register your Ghana Card for free.
