Ghana Visa Application PDF Template

According to the U.S. Department of State’s website, every U.S. citizen entering Ghana needs to have both a passport and a visa. According to a recent survey, 32% of people travel for people and culture, 24% of people travel for perspective, and 14% of people travel for adventure. Whatever your desires are, taking time to get permission to travel to the country of your choice is a major step in your decision to travel to that country.

According to the Huffington Post’s article, entitled How To Get A Visa: A Beginer’s Guide To Travel Documents, “a travel visa is a document that shows you’re allowed to enter a specific country, for a specific length of time, to do a specific thing such as tour or study or work.” Not all countries require a U.S. citizen to submit an application for a visa to enter. However, any U.S. citizen traveling to Ghana must apply for a visa before doing so. The U.S. Department of State recommends visiting the Embassy of Ghana’s website for up to date information regarding entry to the country. At the time of this article, the Embassy of Ghana’s website says, “single entry permit visas are valid for only 3 months (90 days) from the date of issue.” In addition, submissions should not be made far in advance of travel date, for the Embassy of Ghana does not hold the applications for future travel arrangements.

Obtain a copy of the mail-in Ghana Visa Application Form, or use the online visa application to fill in the form with the correct information provided on the passport of yourself or another applicant.

Indicate the current citizenship status of each applicant at the time of submission.

Take a look at the first page of the form that provides a checklist.

If traveling with children, the applicant must fill in the required form as a consent letter. This form is included in the PDF.

Indicate ‘Multiple Entry’ or ‘Single Entry’ on the Ghana Visa Application Form. ‘Multiple Entry’ is suggested if the applicant plans to return to the country again within the 90 day period.

Finish filling in all information requested on the document, including trip details (length of stay, date of travel, interests in visiting Ghana).

Submit online or in-person, and pay the required fee (no cash or checks accepted)

All U.S. citizens are required to apply for a visa to enter Ghana, so anyone who plans to travel from the United States to the country of Ghana will need to fill out an application for their visa before boarding a plane to their destination. This visa is required for people traveling from countries outside of the United States as well; in fact, the majority of people around the world need a visa before visiting Ghana. There are some exceptions to the visa policy: Countries bordering Ghana and a few Countries in Africa that are proximal to Ghana are exempt from the visa requirement. – Citizens of many of the other African Countries that are not already exempt are not required to have a visa in advance but may be required to have a visa upon arrival.
