“With immediate effect, Ghanaians will no longer require traditional visas to travel to Morocco,” Sam Okudzeto Ablakwa, Minister of Foreign Affairs, has announced.

He made the excitement on Facebook, today, Friday, June 6, 2025.

“An online authorization which will be granted within 24-hours without embassy appointments is all that’s needed,” he explained.

“This is one of the significant agreements reached yesterday with the Foreign Minister of Morocco, H.E. Nasser Bourita on my 2-day working visit.”

Expectation

Ablakwa said, “With existing direct flights which would be increased following this new agreement, we expect this bilateral visa waiver policy to greatly facilitate trade, tourism and deepen people to people engagements between both countries.”

“The borders in Africa must not be allowed to divide us — they can be bridges of connectivity,” he proclaimed.

“Diplomacy must make meaningful impact in the lives of the people we serve.”

“I wish all our Muslim brothers and sisters a happy Eid,” his post ended.
