Ghanaian Visa applicants at the United States Embassy in Ghana have said they were given 3months single entry Visa instead of 5 years multiple entry.  Whereas many Ghanaians heard of the news of similar arrangement by the US embassy in Nigeria, many Ghanaians did not realized same is taking in place in Ghana.  The new rule, which took effect on July 8, 2025, affects all new applications for B-1 (business), B-2 (tourism), and B-1/B-2 combination visas.  Applicants will now be granted visas that allow them to enter the U.S.

only once within a three-month period.

Previously, Ghanaian visa holders could travel to the U.S.

multiple times over five years without reapplying.
