Ghana and Malawi have reached an agreement on a visa waiver regime for bearers of ordinary, diplomatic and service passports.
The agreement which took effect from February 7, 2024, intends to strengthen bilateral relations and existing cooperation between the two countries.
In a statement issued on Thursday, March 21, 2024, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration stated that travelers can enter, leave and stay in both countries for 90 days in a calendar year as long as they do not work.
The Ministry has urged the public to take notice of the new visa waiver agreement.
Earlier this year, Malawi also announced visa exemptions for nationals of 79 countries and extended the validity period of multiple-entry visas.
Nationals of these countries, which include Australia, Canada, Germany, Russia, the UK, and Member States of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), can now enter Malawi without a visa for up to 90 days for business and tourism purposes.
