Even though the countries listed above do not require any passport on arrival, some airlines may deny you access to their plane. This is because, most airlines do transit transportation. They will fly from Ghana and enter their host nation before moving to your destination. This means one needs a transit visa before he or she can travel to any visa-free country. This is a requirement from the transport companies and not the country you wish to go.

NB: For visa-free travels, you still must have a valid passport; usually six months after your departure date; and you must purchase travel health insurance as required by your destination country.

The process of getting an eVisa is more or less the same as applying for a traditional visa. However, in this case, you don’t have to visit a visa application center— you can submit your application online, including the visa payment.

After your application is approved, you will receive an email confirming your visa status along with a document you must print out and bring with you when crossing the border. Your visa will be registered online, but some officers may ask you for a physical copy of the permit; that is why it’s important to keep the copy on your person while traveling
