Immigrating to Ghana
Immigrating to Ghana
For both single and multiple entry visas, the actual time in which you are allowed to stay in the country will be decided by Immigration officials at the entry points. Usually a stay of a maximum period of 60 days is granted. If you wish to stay in Ghana longer than the granted period, you should have the duration of your stay extended at the Ghana Immigration Service in Accra.
If you want to live in Ghana legally, then you must be a student, an investor or somebody from non-governmental organizations. It is quite common for those who want to relocate to Ghana to make use of the incentives when it comes to making investments in the country. These incentives are provided by the Ghana government and entitle you to get a residence permit in the country. If you are an investor in Ghana, then the Ghana Investment Promotion Center will contact the immigration department of the country on your behalf, so that you can get a residence permit. On top of meeting other requirements, this is needed for you to be able to invest and live in Ghana for a longer period of time.
