“No More Traditional Visas For Morocco, Ghanaians To Get Online Travel Approval In 24 Hours ”- Foreign Minister – GhArticles.com
Ghanaians can now travel to Morocco without needing a traditional visa, following a new bilateral agreement between the two countries.
The announcement was made by Ghana’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, in a Facebook post on June 6, 2025. According to him, the new policy takes immediate effect and replaces the regular visa process with a simplified online travel authorisation system.
The authorisation, which can be obtained within 24 hours, removes the need for embassy appointments, making travel quicker and more convenient for Ghanaians.
“This is one of the significant agreements reached yesterday with the Foreign Minister of Morocco, H.E. Nasser Bourita, during my two-day working visit,” Ablakwa wrote.
With direct flights already in place between Ghana and Morocco, and more expected to be added, officials expect the agreement to enhance trade, tourism, and cultural exchange.
Ablakwa added, “The borders in Africa must not be allowed to divide us, they can be bridges of connectivity.”
