Applicants seeking to join the country\u2019s security services (Police, Prisons, Immigration and Fire service) in the ongoing 2025\/26 recruitment must upload a biometric birth certificate, their Ghana Card, and academic certificates directly to the Centralised Services E-Recruitment Portal (C-SERP), the organisers have announced.<\/p>\n

The notice, which details the core requirements for application, mandates a strict list of documents to be provided by all prospective candidates for the Ghana Police Service, Ghana Immigration Service, Ghana National Fire Service, and Ghana Prisons Service.<\/p>\n

The notice explicitly states that \u201call applicants are expected to provide basic biographic (bio), geographic (geo) and academic information as part of the application process.\u201d<\/p>\n

The required documents to be uploaded include a passport picture on a red or white background, a biometric birth certificate, a JHS certificate, and an SSCE\/WASSCE or equivalent certificate. <\/p>\n

For higher qualifications, tertiary and professional certificates are also required.<\/p>\n

The notice also provides clarity on a common issue faced by applicants, stating that the portal will accept \u201caffidavits in support of Change of Name [or] Maiden Name but not affidavits for a change in Age.\u201d <\/p>\n

This rule aims to curb the recurring problem of age falsification in public service recruitment.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, applicants must provide their Ghana Card number, Ghana Post GPS address, and an active phone number and email address for verification and communication.<\/p>\n

This rigorous digital application process is part of the government\u2019s broader C-SERP initiative to centralise and sanitise recruitment into internal security agencies. <\/p>\n

The system is designed to promote transparency and eliminate the influence of middlemen who often prey on desperate job seekers.<\/p>\n

The portal opens for applications at 12 noon today, Monday, November 17, 2025, and will close on Friday, December 19, 2025. <\/p>\n

All interested and qualified Ghanaians are advised to gather the necessary documents and ensure they meet the technical specifications, including a file size of 1.5 MB per upload in PNG or JPG formats, before starting their application on https:\/\/cserpgh.com.<\/p>\n
