The 2026 Vetting Window: What You Need to Know Before March 5

The 2026 Vetting Window is the final step for diaspora members seeking Ghanaian citizenship before the national swearing-in on March 5. To qualify, applicants must complete physical vetting at the DuBois Centre, verify ancestry via DNA, and settle all fees. It’s a historic "homecoming" deadline for those formalizing their roots in Ghana.
