Hi–I am an American citizen with a short-term residency permit for South Africa. However, I am currently in Mozambique on a long-term assignment (in possession on a multiple-entry three-month business visa), where there is no Ghanaian mission. I am planning on being in Ghana for a short 2-day trip for tourism purposes in June (tentatively, arriving Friday, June 22 around 10pm and departing Sunday 24 around 10 pm). Are you able to assist with obtaining permission for me to receive a visa on arrival? As I have explained previously, there is no Ghanaian mission here in Mozambique and I won’t be in South Africa long enough during my onward travels to obtain a visa from the Ghanaian consulate there.
Thanks–and looking forward to hearing from you.

Hello I am an American citizen with a passport trying to visit Ghana. I see on the visa application that it is asking if I have an airline ticket. I work for a major airline therefore I will be flying standby and don’t actually have a “ticket”. Will that be a problem? If not, how do I move forward?
Also, I have been hearing conflicting information on whether I can get a visa at the airport in Ghana or whether I must have one upon arrival. If I can obtain a visa at the airport that would work much better for me because I don’t think I have time to get that process done before my vacation. Can you help clarify this? Thank you very much

Dear Sir or Madam, I am retired but would like to live in Ghana. I am Dutch but live in Brazil. The problem is that I cannot get in touch with the Embassy of Ghana in Brasilia. I have sent several e-mails but never received a reply. You have the correct e-mail address for me. I have now applied for a visa from you. Can you inform me about the cost of the visa and how I can pay it in Brazil, or can this also be done in the Netherlands. I received a protocol number when I filled in the form. I was in Ghana on January 1 but did not get a visa at Accra airport. The emigration service did not believe that I had come to get to know my girlfriend personally. I was told that I had to pay $ 150 the next day. I said that’s good and no problem. But the next day I was told that I didn’t get a visa at all, but the country was deported. I also wasn’t told what the reason was. Another lady told my girlfriend that if I wanted to pay she could arrange for a visa. Before I left I had been well informed about obtaining a visa upon arrival. If I want to live there permanently, I need a residence permit. I was told that all that could be arranged there as well. My girlfriend had also informed everything at the emigration service. There was no problem if I came, unfortunately everything went wrong. I had received an invitation letter from her, but that too was set aside. They just didn’t believe us. I would like to hear from you what I can do now to return to Ghana, but now without problems. Thank you in advance for your effort, I stay with kind regards,

My colleague and i are traveling from South Africa to Ghana for 5 days next week (24th April to 28 April 2023), can we get a visa at Accra airport? our arrival time is 2.40 pm.
Ghana immigration would issue you a visa upon arrival at the airport. Currently, airlines will not allow you to board the plane if you do not have a visa on arrival. We can also help you to obtain the visa on arrival in three working days for your travel. sen dan email to [email protected] if you want us to work on a visa for you.
