Ghana: FAIRS Country Report
This report provides updates on the regulations and procedures for the importation of food and agricultural products to Ghana. In 2017, Ghana’s customs process underwent significant change, as the main port facility in Tema went paperless (see Section IX). This new system endured criticism due to delays and confusion during its launch. Yet after early difficulties, the new electronic system appears to be well received by the business community and a welcome step towards a more streamlined import and export process. This report includes several other updates concerning changes on certification and testing (Section VIII) and import procedures (Section IX).
