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.
