Ghana’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stated that a notice in circulation claiming that Ghanaians have been asked to leave Cambodia is fake.
In a statement dated May 29, 2026, the Ministry says it “has become aware of a fake notice circulating widely on social media and traditional media platforms, purportedly issued by the Government of the Kingdom of Cambodia, regarding alleged immigration measures targeting African nationals resident in Cambodia.”
It says “the fake circular claims that citizens of Ghana, Kenya, Cameroon, Uganda and other African countries have been directed to leave Cambodia by 31st May, 2026 or risk arrest, imprisonment and financial penalties for immigration violations.”
The Ministry said Cambodian authorities have confirmed to Ghanaian authorities that they have issued no such notice.
The Cambodian Ministry of Interior has proceeded to issue a press clarification today, stating that the purported notice is “completely untrue” (see attached).
