Ghana Launches Free eVisa for African Nationals Starting May 25
Ghana has introduced a free electronic visa for all African passport holders, effective from May 25.
The Ghanaian government announced its free visa policy for African nationals in April.
Effective 25 May, eligible travellers can apply for a free electronic visa through an online portal. This means African passport holders no longer incur a visa fee when travelling to Ghana, but an application process remains. It is a "free visa" (fee waived) rather than "visa-free" (no visa required), meaning applicants must still complete the online process. Travellers are advised to comply with all requirements before booking flights or accommodation.
