Visa-Free Countries for Ghana

To travel from Ghana to another country, one will often need a passport and a visa to enter the new jurisdiction.

The good news is that, through bilateral relations between Ghana and other countries, some of these restrictions have been lifted and some too are visa on arrival.

According to Henley Passport Index in 2020, Ghana dropped one place to 78th position for the world’s most travel-friendly passports.

Per the index, the Ghanaian passport provides visa-free/visa on arrival access to 65 destinations across Asia, Africa, Caribbean, Oceania, Americas and the Middle East while 161 destinations required a visa from Ghanaian nationals.
