How the Ghana e-Tourist visa works
Ghana launched its eVisa system in May 2026. Your application, documents and payment are all sent online, and the approved eVisa is emailed to you. You keep your passport the whole time.
e-Tourist visa or tourist visa?
The e-Tourist visa is usually the quicker option. If you'd prefer a visa in your passport, or your case doesn't fit the eVisa, we can apply for a Ghana tourist visa through the High Commission instead.
Yellow fever certificate
Ghana requires all arriving travellers to show a valid yellow fever vaccination certificate. Get vaccinated at least 10 days before you travel, at a registered yellow fever centre.
