Passports

All international students must have passports from their governments before they can enter the country.

Visas

Students arriving in Ghana from ECOWAS Countries are not required to obtain visas since Ghana is a member of the ECOWAS and subscribes to the protocol on free movement. Non-ECOWAS students however, require a visa.

Residence Permit

• Residential permits (renewable annually - students are to submit documents for visa and residence permit to the international desk 21 days before the expiry date of your visa/ residence permit) are processed by the office when International Students have fully registered.
