Stop! Important Travel Advisory: Read Before Using “Who Can Apply” for Ghana Visa on Arrival
The DAGh Credibility Commitment
If you are reviewing the eligibility criteria under “Who Can Apply” for a Visa on Arrival to Ghana, please treat this as a serious YMYL (Your Money or Your Life) matter. Our article provides experience-based guidance, but your actual approval and entry still depend on official immigration discretion and airline requirements.
🚨 Alert: Eligibility Criteria ≠ Guaranteed Approval or Entry
Even if you appear eligible based on the criteria, you must still fulfil all other requirements and receive approval from the Ghana Immigration Service. Eligibility does not guarantee boarding or entry.

The Ghana Visa on Arrival is a special provision designed to ease the entry process for specific categories of travelers. As of 2025, you may be eligible if you fall under one of the following groups:
1. Citizens of Countries Without Ghanaian Embassies
If your home country does not have a Ghanaian embassy or consulate, applying for a visa can be challenging. Ghana’s VoA system allows such travelers to bypass embassy visits and gain legal entry into the country.
2. Emergency or Humanitarian Travelers
In cases of urgent travel—such as medical emergencies, funerals, or humanitarian missions—individuals can request a visa on arrival for immediate access to Ghana. Documentation proving the nature of the emergency is usually required.
3. Conference and Business Event Attendees
Ghana is a hub for international conferences, trade fairs, and business summits. If you’re attending a recognized business or academic event, you may be granted a visa on arrival for your stay.
4. African Diasporans Returning Home
If you are part of the African diaspora returning to reconnect with your heritage, invest, or explore relocation opportunities in Ghana, the VoA program provides a welcoming gateway. Ghana continues to extend its hand to diasporans worldwide, building on initiatives like the “Year of Return” and “Beyond the Return.”
