Features of this application system
- When filling in your details, pay attention to the passport number (top right corner of your passport information page) and the validity of your passport. These two details appear on the visa. If one of the two details is not correct on the visa, the visa application must be applied for and paid again.
- After completing the application form, you cannot go back into the system for a correction.
- You must make an appointment at the end to complete and complete the application form.
- If you go to the consulate in person, you must come on the day of the appointment because you cannot show up earlier than the scheduled appointment date. If you do not make an appointment, you will not be able to complete the application form. Even if the appointment falls on a date when you are already in Ghana, you should make an appointment. Calling the consulate is useless!
- If we apply for your visa, we will go directly to the consulate as soon as we receive your application. Unlike you, we are not bound by the appointment date you have made!
