The Embassy of the Republic of Ghana in Qatar has announced plans to organise an emergency evacuation exercise for Ghanaian nationals residing in Qatar following heightened security concerns in the region.
According to a statement issued on March 15, 2026, the Government of Ghana made the decision after assessing the evolving security situation across the Middle East.
“The Embassy of the Republic of Ghana in Qatar wishes to refer to its earlier notice dated 6th March, 2026, and to inform all Ghanaians living in Qatar that the Government of the Republic of Ghana has decided to undertake an emergency evacuation exercise in Qatar in the wake of the heightened security situation in the region,” the statement said.
The embassy has therefore called on Ghanaian citizens living in Doha and other parts of the country who wish to return home to reconfirm their interest.
According to the notice, interested individuals must submit the biodata pages of their passports via email to facilitate the evacuation arrangements.
The embassy further stated that all required documents should be sent to doha@mfa.gov.gh no later than Tuesday, March 17, 2026, to enable authorities to properly plan and coordinate the exercise.
The initiative forms part of precautionary measures aimed at ensuring the safety and well-being of Ghanaian nationals in the region amid the current security situation.
