Ghana is introducing some of the world’s strictest Covid travel rules, by banning any adult who has not been vaccinated from flying in with effect from Monday.
There is no option to self-isolate.
Ghanaian citizens and residents abroad are exempt for up to two weeks, but will be required to get jabbed upon landing at the airport.
The authorities say they are concerned about a surge of infections over the festive period.
Many other countries have avoided an outright blanket ban on unvaccinated arrivals, such as members of the European Union and the United States.
Ghana’s land and sea borders have been closed to passenger traffic since restrictions were first introduced at the start of the pandemic.
