Citizenship requirements for companies in Ghana.
How can we obtain residency and work permits to live and work in Ghana?
An investor who invests under the GIPC law is automatically entitled to a specific number of visas/work permits based on the size of the investment. When an investment of USD $10,000 or its equivalent is made in convertible currency or machinery and equipment, the enterprise can obtain a visa/work permit for one expatriate employee. An investment ranging from USD $10,000 to USD $100,000 entitles the enterprise to two (2) automatic visas/work permits. An investment of USD $500,000 and above qualifies an enterprise to bring in four (4) expatriate employees.
An enterprise may apply for extra visas/work permits, but the investor must justify why a foreigner must be employed rather than a Ghanaian. There are no restrictions on the issuance of work and residence permits to Free Zone investors and employees.
