The U.S. Embassy in Accra has announced the temporary suspension of most routine consular services from July 20 to July 31, 2026, to facilitate scheduled facility maintenance.
According to a notice from the Embassy, services are expected to resume on August 3, 2026.
During the maintenance period, walk-in services for notarial services and Consular Reports of Death Abroad (CRODA) will be unavailable.
