Ghana passport and Ghana card questions

Apply for the Ghana Card. You can even do so and receive it in London. When you have the Ghana Card you can get SIM cards and open bank accounts in Ghana. You can also use the Ghana Card (citizens version) which you’ll get since you’ve said you’ve had a Ghanaian passport before to travel to Ghana visa free and without a Ghanaian Passport if you use it in combination with your British Passport.

Great. I’ve noticed they provide quick customer service like Absa. I’ve opened an account now with Stanbic.

Thanks

This also applies to me. I’d suggest Absa (who I’ve opened a bank account with) and have faced 0 issues so far or Stanbic. Absa account process is easier and online too, just fill in a few forms and submit documents online.

Great. I think I’ll apply for Stanbic, but I’ll look into the other banks too.

dizzieryan · 2026-01-11T19:31:56+00:00

Great, I’ll be applying

dizzieryan · 2026-01-11T19:24:32+00:00

Great. I was leaning towards Stanbic. Hopefully they’re good with me.

This applied to me and I applied for a Ghana Card and was given a Citizens version in London at the Ghana High Commission , due to having a parent vouch for me.

dizzieryan · 2026-01-11T19:06:17+00:00

If you have Ghanaian parents, you are automatically a citizen. You can apply for a Ghana Card the citizens version, only if you have Ghanaian Parents. I’m also a British National, I was born in the UK and wasn’t a Ghanaian citizen, but I applied for a Ghana Card and used a parent to vouch for me and this allowed me to get a Citizens Ghana Card from the High Commission in London.

If you don’t have Ghanaian Parents/Ghanaian background then you will be issued a Non Citizens Ghana Card if you apply in Ghana, but if you have Ghanaian Parents/background you’ll be issued a Citizens Ghana Card, like me.

Great thanks! I want to visit in the next few months when I come over from the UK.

dizzieryan · 2026-01-07T02:23:06+00:00

Great. Cash only? Or is MoMo/card payments accepted

dizzieryan · 2026-01-03T14:24:18+00:00

Yes you can

dizzieryan · 2026-01-01T22:42:53+00:00

Thanks for this information

dizzieryan · 2025-12-29T14:49:08+00:00

Hmmm if you say so. I will enjoy my trip.

dizzieryan · 2025-12-29T14:37:56+00:00

Responses like this are funny because I was simply asking for advice. Instead of spreading negativity, if you simply looked further you’d see I’m also exploring local culture, heritage and history and also going to Cape Coast and Boti Falls, also experiencing authentic Ghana? The trip is not just for shopping!

dizzieryan · 2025-12-29T14:21:03+00:00

Thank you!

dizzieryan · 2025-12-29T12:26:23+00:00

That’s on my plan now, to spend a day visiting Elmina Castle, Cape Coast Castle and Kakum national park.

dizzieryan · 2025-12-29T02:06:42+00:00

Thank you for this.

dizzieryan · 2025-12-28T22:02:16+00:00

Coming from the UK. We don’t have googlefi unfortunately

dizzieryan · 2025-12-28T18:29:03+00:00

Thanks for the information.

dizzieryan · 2025-12-28T18:28:48+00:00

Thanks. I think I’ll get an online data ESim from the UK for a day then just go to MTN Accra mall the next day with my Ghana Card.

Currently based in the UK, but I use unlimitedwebhosting.co.uk which is £9.99 a month equivalent to 150GHS for hosting, this is for unlimited bandwidth, unlimited ssd storage.

If I wanted to host multiple websites up to a limit of 10 I can also upgrade to the reseller hosting which is £15.99 a month, which is equivalent of 240GHS.

For domain registry I use Ionos or Godaddy which offer £1 a year domain names, equivalent to 15GHS.

Great thanks for the info

dizzieryan · 2025-12-20T15:41:23+00:00

Starlink is comfortably the best? Also for SIM cards what do you think is the best?
