How to Apply for a South African eVisa from Ghana?
Travelers can apply for the South African eVisa on the South African Online eVisa website. On the website, travelers will have to fill an application that asks them to list certain personal details such as their name, date of birth, country of citizenship, as well as some passport information such as passport number and expiry date.
There will also be some questions regarding the health and security of the travelers which they will need to answer as well. These answers will be recorded and checked against a security database to identify any potential security threats. Travelers must ensure that they provide only the most accurate information on the visa application form and that the information matches that shown on their passport.
Applications with information that is missing or that don’t match the information on the traveler’s passport may cause delays in the processing of the application. It may even result in a denial of visa for the traveler as well.
Therefore, travelers should be careful while filling out the online visa application so that mistakes can be minimized and/or rectified before submitting the application.
As part of completing the application, travelers will have to make a payment in order to have their application processed. This payment can be made using a valid debit or credit card.
How Long Does It Take to Get an eVisa for South Africa from Ghana?
After the traveler submits their South African online eVisa website, it can take up to 3 business days for the traveler’s eVisa to arrive via email.
Once the traveler receives their eVisa, they must take a printed copy of the eVisa with them to show South African Immigration officials when they arrive at a South African port of entry. If the traveler is cleared for entry, there will be an entry stamp placed on the traveler’s passport which will allow them to enter South Africa for the length of time listed on the approved eVisa.
