Visiting Morocco Now Visa-Free For Ghanaian Citizens

Ghanaian citizens would no longer require traditional visas to travel to Morocco, following a Visa-free agreement between the two countries.

The announcement was made by Ghana’s Foreign Affairs Minister, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, who said the new policy takes immediate effect.

“An online authorization, which will be granted within 24 hours without embassy appointments, is all that’s needed.

“This is one of the significant agreements reached yesterday with the Foreign Minister of Morocco, H.E. Nasser Bourita, on my 2-day working visit.

“With existing direct flights, which would be increased following this new agreement, we expect this bilateral visa waiver policy to greatly facilitate trade, tourism, and deepen people-to-people engagements between both countries.

“The borders in Africa must not be allowed to divide us — they can be bridges of connectivity. Diplomacy must make a meaningful impact in the lives of the people we serve.” The Ghanaian Foreign Affairs Minister said on X

Instead of applying through the embassy, travellers can now obtain an online travel authorisation within 24 hours as part of changes expected to make travel easier and faster, boosting tourism, trade, and personal connections between Ghana and Morocco.

“The borders in Africa must not be allowed to divide us they can be bridges of connectivity,” He concluded.
