Official Information

Overview

Multiple re-entry visa allowing foreign residents to make repeated trips outside Ghana and return during the validity period.

The Re-Entry Visa (Multiple) is a specialized immigration facility provided under the framework of the Immigration Act, 2000 (Act 573) and associated regulations. It was established to address the specific needs of foreign nationals who are lawfully present in Ghana but do not hold a formal residence permit. This visa fills a critical gap for individuals who need to travel outside of Ghana temporarily for business or personal reasons and require a guaranteed, hassle-free mechanism to return to the country without needing to re-apply for a standard entry visa each time.

This visa is designed for non-resident foreign nationals currently in Ghana who anticipate multiple departures and re-entries. It is ideal for business travelers, consultants, or expatriates in the process of finalizing their long-term residency status. Its distinctive feature is the flexibility it offers, allowing the holder to move across borders repeatedly during the validity period of the visa, thereby preventing the disruption of their ongoing activities or projects within Ghana.
