A valid passport is required for travel to Ghana. Each participant is responsible for obtaining and maintaining a passport that meets Ghana's entry requirements, including being valid for at least six months beyond the date of travel. Give Hope will provide guidance and reminders along the way, but all passport applications, renewals, fees, and related requirements are the responsibility of the traveler.

Each participant is responsible for obtaining a valid Ghana visitor visa before departure. Give Hope will provide instructions, guidance, and important deadlines to help you through the visa application process, but completing the application, providing all required documentation, paying applicable fees, and obtaining the visa are ultimately the responsibility of the traveler.

Each participant is responsible for obtaining the required Yellow Fever vaccination and carrying the appropriate proof of vaccination for travel to Ghana. Give Hope will provide information and reminders about this requirement, but scheduling the vaccination, paying any associated costs, and obtaining and traveling with the required documentation are the responsibility of the traveler.

International travel may include long travel days, hot weather, walking on uneven terrain, unfamiliar foods and water, exposure to illness, and limited access to medical care. Participants should consider their individual health needs and consult with their physician before traveling when appropriate.

Ghana is known for its warm hospitality and is a destination Give Hope teams have traveled to for many years. Our team works closely with trusted in-country partners throughout the trip, and participant safety is a priority in our planning and decision-making. As with any international travel, conditions can change, and Give Hope will communicate important travel or safety information with participants before and during the trip.
