The Embassy of Ghana in Qatar said the decision follows heightened security concerns in parts of the Middle East. In a notice dated March 15, 2026, the Embassy of Ghana in Qatar explained that the government issued the directive after reviewing the evolving regional security situation.
According to the Embassy of Ghana in Qatar, the evacuation arrangement will strictly be a one-way exercise from Qatar to Ghana. The Embassy is therefore urging Ghanaians currently residing in the country who wish to be evacuated to reconfirm their interest immediately.
The Embassy has asked interested citizens to submit the biodata pages of their passports via email. Ghanaians seeking evacuation must send the information to doha@mfa.gov.gh no later than Tuesday, March 17, 2026.
According to the Embassy of Ghana in Qatar, the evacuation exercise is only a precautionary measure in response to the current security concerns.
Officials say the move forms part of contingency planning to ensure the safety of Ghanaian citizens abroad.
