Abstract

Passport is an official document which proves the identity of the bearer and provides freedom of movement especially during intentional travels. Passports have been contentious and highly sought-after items over the years, as they are considered as the one of the most important forms of identification. This also explains why it is always a target for unscrupulous criminals and the dark web black market. The passport of Ghana is protected by a myriad of security features ranging from substrate protection, ink protection, protection by methods and types of printing etc. Although these security features do not entirely insulate passports form forgery, they do however ensure a considerable level of security from fraudsters who have access to advanced printers and technologies.
