CAGD's new E-Payslip system has picked up mismatches between the Ghana Card (NIA) numbers on the payroll and employees' actual NIA records. Some staff have no NIA number on file at all. If this affects you, you won't be able to access your payslip.

๐–๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐จ: Contact your institution's HR department to confirm your NIA details are correct. If there's an error or your number is missing, HR must apply for a correction along with an authorisation letter from your Head of Institution, submitted to CAGD for validation.

Physical NIA cards are no longer needed for this process, per the National Identity Register (Amended) Regulations, 2026 (L.I. 2523).

CAGD reminds all Covered Entities that opening bank accounts with the Bank of Ghana or any Commercial Bank without prior written approval from the Controller and Accountant-General is a breach of Section 51(1) of the Public Financial Management Act, 2016 (Act 921). Accounts opened without this approval will be closed and the funds transferred into the Consolidated Fund, and entities that fail to comply will face sanctions under the Act. All Covered Entities are directed to seek CAGD's approval before opening any new account.
