Ghana has cancelled the arduous task of filling embarkation and disembarkation forms by travellers at the busy Kotoka International Airport.
The state agency that used to collect these information about travellers arriving or leaving Ghana, the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS), has said in a statement dated March 20, 2023, that the move is part of a national digitalisation agenda.
The statement issued by GIS director general Charles Kaikue explained, however, that travellers would still be required to provide some information to immigration officers at the processing booths.
The information that would now be required only at the processing booths are as follows:
- Address in Ghana and abroad
- Telephone numbers
- Flight details (Airline and flight number)
- Purpose of visit Profession
- Profession
Meanwhile, the Ghana Immigration Service has said it will start a 10-day pilot of the newly introduced measure from March 21, 2023, but a full rollout of the new arrangement will start from March 31, 2023. Read More…
