Muslims around the world commemorate Eid-Ul-Fitr, also called the “Festival of Breaking the Fast,” as a major Islamic holiday. It is the last day of Ramadan, a sacred time for prayer, fasting, and introspection. Family get-togethers, charitable deeds, lavish dinners, and prayers are all part of the celebration. The Muslim population in Ghana observes Eid-Ul-Fitr extensively, and it is a public holiday.

It has been made clear by the US Embassy that it will be open on Tuesday, April 1, 2025, and all visa interviews that are scheduled for that day will go accordingly.

Applicants affected by the rescheduling are encouraged to adjust their schedules accordingly and ensure they attend their interviews on the new dates provided.
