US Makes Special Provisions for World Cup Visa Application for Ghanaians

The United States of America (USA) says special provisions have been made to expedite visa application processing for Ghanaians seeking to join the World Cup tournament.

This will address the current delays in securing visa appointments, the acting US Ambassador to Ghana, Rolf Olson, assured the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, during an engagement on January 13, 2026.

“The US embassy will address a press conference on these new World Cup Visa Application Initiatives soon,” the Minister reported in a Facebook post.

The engagement was used to comprehensively assess Ghana-US bilateral relations and agreed on priority areas for cooperation in 2026.

Ghana has qualified for the 5th time for the World Cup.

The West African country will face Panama, England, and Croatia in the tournament to be held in Mexico, Canada, and the United States.

Ghana’s campaign begins against Panama in Toronto, followed by matches against England and Croatia in Boston and Philadelphia, respectively.
