Hello everyone, i just have a quick question. I came to the US at the age of 13 and haven't been back to ghana since then (Almost 10yrs). My question is, i'm planning on going to Ghana this summer what do i need to bring with me? I have a Gh passport and i'm a GC holder. Do i need a visa to get into Gh? Or do i just show up to the airport with my passport and GC...of course with a ticket also :D

You're a Ghanaian so why would you need a visa to enter your own country? The green card is only a document that entitles you to live in America permanently; it does not take away the fact that, you are a Ghanaian by birth and nationality!
