Ghana National Service Authority biodata rectification

Overview

The National Service Authority (NSA) has implemented measures to address biodata mismatches preventing prospective personnel from completing registration. Initially, the NSA set a deadline of August 26, 2026, for students to report to the headquarters to rectify personal detail discrepancies.

To resolve these issues, the NSA is working with the National Identification Authority, the Ghana Publishing Company, and Commissioners for Oaths to assist students with necessary affidavits or Gazette publications.

Following the initial deadline, the NSA announced a specific three-day window from September 1 to September 3, 2026, at the Kumasi Regional Office to facilitate on-site corrections for name or ID mismatches. Additionally, the registration portal has been reopened for defaulters and private candidates, including Ghanaian nationals who studied abroad, with a new deadline of September 4, 2026.
