Ghana and Morocco Launch Visa-Free Travel With Instant Online Authorization

Ghanaian citizens can now travel to Morocco without needing a traditional visa, thanks to a new agreement that simplifies travel between the two countries. 

Announced by Ghana’s Foreign Affairs Minister, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, the policy takes immediate effect and replaces the embassy visa process with an online travel authorisation that can be obtained in under 24 hours.

“This is one of the key agreements reached with the Moroccan Foreign Minister during my two-day working visit,” Ablakwa said in a statement. The move is set to enhance tourism, trade, and interpersonal ties between the nations. 

With direct flights already operating, the streamlined travel policy is expected to further strengthen regional cooperation. “The borders in Africa must not be allowed to divide us they can be bridges of connectivity,” he added.
