Ghana now has a visa-free agreement with Morocco
Ghanaians will no longer require traditional visas to travel to Morocco, following a new bilateral agreement aimed at strengthening trade, tourism, and diplomatic ties between the two nations.
This was announced by Ghana’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, in a post shared on his official social media pages on Friday, June 7, 2025.
According to the minister, Ghanaians can now travel to Morocco using an online authorisation, which will be granted within 24-hours, removing the need for embassy appointments.
“This is one of the significant agreements reached yesterday with the Foreign Minister of Morocco, HE Nasser Bourita, on my two-day working visit,” Ablakwa wrote.
The new visa waiver policy is expected to significantly enhance trade, boost tourism, and deepen people-to-people engagements between the two countries.
He also explained that existing direct flights between Ghana and Morocco will be increased to support this new agreement.
“The borders in Africa must not be allowed to divide us — they can be bridges of connectivity. Diplomacy must make meaningful impact in the lives of the people we serve,” the minister stated.
He ended the announcement by extending Eid well-wishes to Ghana’s Muslim community.
