Ghana and South Korea have signed a “historic” Visa Waiver Agreement for holders of Diplomatic and Service Passports.
Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, the Foreign Minister of Ghana, said the agreement was signed in Korea on Monday, June 1, 2026.
In a post on Facebook on Monday, Ablakwa said “Negotiations will continue to bring on board holders of Ordinary Passports.”
He says “This is the first Visa Waiver Agreement by our two nations in almost 50 years of formal bilateral relations.”
According to him, “South Korean Foreign Minister, H. E. Cho Hyun and I signed the agreement in the margins of the ongoing Africa-Korea Foreign Ministers Meeting.”
He added that “I am delighted we are delivering on key priorities following the working visit of President Mahama to South Korea in March this year.”
