Ghana Visa for Bangladeshi

Let’s start with the good information in this section. Bangladeshi diplomatic or official visa holders can apply for their Ghana visa without paying any fee. Ordinary passport holders are required to pay their visa fee for all the available categories. You need to pay your fees in India in Indian currency, so we will mention the approximate fee amount here in BDT. Ghana visa fee for Bangladeshi is between BDT 6,300 and BDT 38,250. An additional service charge of BDT 2,700 will be required for each visa application.

Even though Ghana visa processing time for standard visas is two working days, for Bangladeshis, it requires 3 to 4 weeks. Sometimes, you can get your visa decision within 2 weeks. However, you should not take risks in terms of your visa application. Your carelessness will cost nothing but delay your trip.

Even if applicants apply for their Ghana visa successfully, approval is not guaranteed. There is a high chance of visa refusal if Bangladeshis have any of the below-mentioned issues.

• If you are banned from entering Ghana.

• Applicant with financial inability. 

• If the authority considers you a threat to Ghana.

• Applicant with mental illness. 

• Applicants who have health risks.

Visa extensions for Bangladeshis have been sanctioned by the Ghana authorities. Hence, you can remain in Ghana as long as your visa has not expired. You have to process the extension at least one month before your initial visa expires. 

Not all kinds of Ghana visas are extendable. For example, a single-entry visitor visa cannot be extended, while a multiple-entry holder can apply for their extension. Ghana Immigration Service handles the processing of their visa extension. Applicants are responsible for making their visa extension request in person. No other alternatives, such as an online extension process, are available. 

Ghana visa extension generally depends on the applicant's visa type and the volume of the application. The standard review time that is given is 5 to 10 working days. If the authorities approve your extension, please collect your new visa from the immigration office. Your new stay period will be mentioned in your new visa.
