The Ministry of Transport has announced that approval has been given for passengers who are travelling to Ghana to opt for visa-on-arrival.
This follows consultations with the Foreign Affairs, Interior and Tourism Ministries, Ghana Immigration Service and the Ghana Tourism Authority, the Transport Ministry indicated.
“Approval has been given for passengers travelling to Ghana to opt for visa-on-arrival waiving the requirement for prior approval” a communiqué to all airlines said.
“Consequently, it would be appreciated if systems are updated to reflect this new arrangement and those responsible for checking-in passengers traveling to Ghana advised not to insist on entry visas prior to their boarding”, the statement added.
The Transport Minister, Kwaku Ofori Asiamah made this known in a press release issued on Thursday.
