Requirements
The Ghana High Commission has instituted a web-based visa appointment system and visa application form, which must be printed and signed by the applicant in duplicate. In order to fulfil this particular requirement, the applicant has two options:
1. The Applicant can complete the online process themselves
To do this, please use the URL link httpss://www.ghanahighcommissionuk.com/Passports/VisaApplication.aspx and follow the instructions. Visas2 can assist the traveller by making the online payment on their behalf.
Applicants must ensure that the visa type selected on the online form matches the visa type requested through Visas2. Failure to do this will result in a delay in the visa being processed.
More details on how to navigate the website can be found in the section below entitled Ghana Online Application Process.
Please ensure that once the form has been completed, you print out the following components from the online portal and include them with the rest of your application pack:
- The "Appointment Details" cover sheet
- The "Visa Payment Slip" where the applicant has paid the visa fee online by selecting "Card Payment at Counter"
- The fully completed Visa Application Form in duplicate
Failure to supply these documents will result in the non issuance of your visa.
2. Visas2 completes the online process on the applicant's behalf
Visas2 can assist the traveller in completing the online application form and making the online payment, which can be a time consuming process. This is offered as a Premium Service at a cost of £50 in addition to all other service fees and current Visas2 handling fees.

Visas will be issued either one, three or seven working days after the date of the scheduled appointment based on the chosen processing time.

Please note that the current waiting time for an appointment is 3-4 weeks.
