Ghanaian citizens are individuals who were born within or outside of the country, where at least one parent is also Ghanaian. Ghanaian citizenship isn’t limited to birth only – one may also acquire citizenship by naturalization if residency conditions are met, by adoption and by registration, upon satisfaction of legal requirements.
Dual Citizenship is allowed in Ghana for non-citizens and Ghanaian citizens who hold other nationalities. The recipient of the second citizenship is required to register the second citizenship in Ghana, and obtain a dual citizenship certificate.
The journey to Ghanaian citizenship all begins with your first visit, and then the decision to make Ghana home. From there, you will obtain either a residence permit or work permit, allowing you a legal stay in the country without any visa extensions needed. Once you’ve been a resident of Ghana for a few years, and have taken up the fundamentals of a local language (or two!) you can now begin to explore the pathway to citizenship. You can expect to wait at least 5 years to begin this process, but there are exceptions made to this waiting period on a case by case basis.
Once eligible, let us know, and our office will coordinate to meet with you, confirm details, and if all is well, we will make a recommendation for your consideration for the next Diaspora Citizenship Ceremony.
