Ghana Facts: Ghana
is one of the five African nations along the northern coastline
of the Gulf of Guinea. It is bordered on the west by Cote
d'Ivoire, on the north by Burkina Faso, and on the east by Togo.
Most of Ghana's 17 million people practice either Christianity
or Islam, which are prevalent depending on the region.
Christianity prospers in the south, while Islam dominates the
rural north. Visitors entering Ghana with more than $5,000
U.S. in cash are required to declare the amount upon entry into
Ghana. Currency exchange is available at most banks and at
licensed foreign exchange bureaus. Currency transactions with
private citizens are illegal.
Register
your trip on-line with the U.S. Embassy in this country.
Millions of Americans travel abroad
every year and encounter no difficulties. However, U.S.
embassies and consulates assist nearly 200,000 Americans each
year who are victims of crime, accident, or illness, or whose
family and friends need to contact them in an emergency. When an
emergency happens, or if natural disaster, terrorism, or civil
unrest strikes during your foreign travel, the nearest U.S.
embassy or consulate can be your source of assistance and
information. By registering your trip, you help the embassy or
consulate locate you when you might need them the most.
Registration is voluntary and costs nothing, but it should be a
big part of your travel planning and security.
