Apostille & Legalization for Ghana
How to authenticate a U.S. document for use in Ghana: whether it needs an apostille or embassy legalization, translation requirements, and how we handle the whole process.
Ghana is not a Hague Convention member, so an apostille alone is not accepted. The document must be authenticated by the U.S. Department of State and then legalized at the Ghana embassy or consulate.
If you are sending a U.S. document to Ghana — for family, employment, business, or another purpose — it must be authenticated before Ghana authorities will accept it. This page explains exactly what Ghana requires and how we handle it end to end.
