ghana visa
 

does anyone know if i can get a ghana visa at the border, in burkina faso now and wanted to head to ghana tomorrow rather than wait until monday for the embassy to open

I am in Bamako, Mali at the moment.

I got my Ghana visa for an extortionate 175 euro in Dakar - 3 month multiple entry. (75 Euro for visa, 100 to ambassadors pocket)

I can confirm the Ghana visa is possible to get in Bamako, a German cyclist woman at the same campground received her visa today, 3 month single entry for 30,000CFA (45 Euro).

It isn't seen as a guarantee, she said the explained how she had left Germany 6 months ago cycling and that was enough

Have also heard its currently available in Burkina Faso with a good excuse.

Burkina for easy Ghana visa.

Everywhere else either impossible or a major headache.

Ghana visa in Bamako, quite easy
 

We got the visa three month singe entry for CFA 30.000.
Very Friendly, next day pickup. Longer visa available, 6 month multiple would have been CFA 80.000 though.

They told us to get it back home. We said, we would love to, but are on the road since some months now an not going to return anytime. We wrote a one page letter to the counselor explaining this situation, the office guy helped us with it. They also asked for an invitation letter, which we had from Nana, a guy from Ghana that helped us with it for free.

Utmost politeness and decent clothing seems to be the key for success.

I was at the Ghana border post yesterday and talked with the Ghana head of immigration. He confirmed that yes, Ghana does in fact issue visa at the border. This is for anyone who has not been able to obtain it anywhere else and looking for a last resort. You can get a visa at the border for a pricey $150USD, one month single entry.

I would get it in Burkina though as mentioned above

He is very helpful and knowledgeable especially about the Cape Coast region. Understandably he wants to help preferably travelers who intend to visit or work in their NGO.
