Visa on Arrival Destinations for Ghanaian Passport Holders

Ghanaian citizens enjoy the convenience of obtaining a Visa on Arrival in several countries across Africa, Asia, the Caribbean and Oceania. Below you will find an overview of how the process works, a categorized list of destinations, and key tips to ensure a smooth entry.

How Visa on Arrival Works

A Visa on Arrival (VOA) allows you to apply for entry clearance at your destination’s port of entry—usually an international airport or land border—rather than in advance from an embassy. You’ll typically need to present:

  • A passport valid for at least 6 months beyond your stay
  • Proof of onward or return ticket
  • Hotel booking or local address
  • Payment for the visa fee (cash or card, depending on country)

  • Comoros – up to 45 days
  • Madagascar – up to 90 days
  • Mozambique – up to 30 days
  • Rwanda – up to 30 days (also e-Visa available)
  • Seychelles – visitor’s permit on arrival, up to 30 days
  • Tanzania – up to 90 days
  • Togo – up to 7 days at land borders

Key Requirements & Fees

  1. Passport with at least 6 months validity and blank pages.
  2. Completed arrival/departure card (provided onboard or at border).
  3. Visa fee (ranges from USD 25–100; check currency and exact amount).
  4. Proof of accommodation and sufficient funds (varies by country).

Tips for a Smooth Visa on Arrival Experience

  • Verify the latest regulations on the official embassy or immigration website before departure.
  • Carry multiple passport-sized photos (where required).
  • Have local currency or a major credit card ready for the visa fee.
  • Fill out any pre-arrival forms online if offered (e.g., Rwanda e-Visa).

While VOA eases last-minute travel plans, always double-check entry rules as they can change without notice. Safe travels!
