This was announced by Ghana’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration in a post on the social networking platform X, where it said both countries had entered into an “agreement on a visa waiver regime for holders of ordinary passports”.
“Travellers will be able to transit through, depart from and stay in the territory of both countries for a cumulative period of up to 90 days without having to work.
According to the Post, the agreement will come into effect on 1 November.
South Africa signed a similar agreement with Kenya in January.
South Africa is Africa’s second largest economy after Nigeria. However, the two African giants have no such visa waiver agreement. There is no indication that such an agreement is in the works between the two countries.
