Ghana – United States Visa Restriction Removed

Hon. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has stated that the US visa restriction imposed on Ghana has been removed.

According to the Foreign Minister, Ghanaians can now be eligible for five-year multiple entry visas and other enhanced consular privileges.

He emphasized that this good news was directly communicated to him by US Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs, Allison Hooker at a bilateral meeting on Friday, September 26, 2025, in the margins of the UN General Assembly.

It will be recalled that the US imposed visa restrictions on Ghana and other countries in July this year. The affected countries were slapped with a maximum three-month single entry visas and other limitations. In the specific case of Ghana, the Trump Administration said they were reacting to many years of visa overstays mainly by students.
