Overview
About the Ghana visa for Indians
Indian passport holders need a visa before travelling to Ghana. Applications are usually made through the Ghana High Commission in India, starting with an application form and followed by submission of your passport and supporting documents. Ghana issues single-entry and multiple-entry visas for tourism, family visits and business, and the permitted stay is decided by the High Commission and immigration officers on arrival. A valid yellow fever vaccination certificate is compulsory and is checked when you land in Accra.
Audvik makes the Ghana visa process simpler. We help you choose between single and multiple entry, fill in the application form, review your invitation letter, bank statements and bookings, and guide you on submission and passport collection. We also track your file and keep you informed at each stage. Alongside the visa, our team can arrange flights, hotels in Accra or Kumasi, coastal tours to Cape Coast and travel insurance.

Ghana visa FAQs
Do Indians need a visa for Ghana?
Yes. Indian citizens need a visa arranged before travelling to Ghana. It is normally applied for through the Ghana High Commission in India with your passport, photographs, bookings and supporting documents. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is also mandatory for entry.
How long does a Ghana visa take from India?
A Ghana visa typically takes around 5–10 working days after submission, depending on the visa type and the High Commission's workload. Processing can take longer near holidays or if extra documents are requested, so we advise applying at least three to four weeks before your trip.
Is yellow fever vaccination mandatory for Ghana?
Yes. Ghana requires all arriving travellers to show a valid yellow fever vaccination certificate. Get vaccinated at an authorised centre at least 10 days before departure and carry the original certificate, as it is checked by health officials at the airport on arrival.
Can I extend my stay in Ghana?
Extensions may be possible through the Ghana Immigration Service while you are in the country, but they are not automatic and require a valid reason and supporting documents. Plan your visa around your actual travel dates to avoid overstaying and the penalties that can follow.
