Before we go further, Let’s talk a little about Ghana Immigration Service (GIS).

The Ghana Immigration Service started as the Immigration and Passport Unit of the Gold Coast Colonial Police Force under the command of Mr. Nevile C. Hill. On the attainment of independence in 1957, the rapid expansion of the economy coupled with Ghana’s role as a trailblazer in the African liberation struggle led to the country being swamped with foreign businessmen, tourists, and African aliens. To control this influx, a Cabinet decision in 1960 transferred the Immigration Unit to the Ministry of the Interior as a separate department, while the Ministry of Foreign Affairs took over the issuing of passports. These measures were taken to enhance service delivery. Three (3) years later, the Aliens Act 1963, Act 160 was enacted to give legal backing to immigration operations.

IMPORTANT: The Ghana Immigration Service recruitment for the 2025 will commence on November 17 to December 19, 2025. The mode of application will be announced in due course.
