Ghana prohibits or restricts the importation of certain goods to protect public health, public safety, national security, and regulatory compliance. Importers should confirm current requirements before shipping, as restrictions may vary by commodity and may change without notice.

Prohibited or restricted imports may include animals or carcasses infected with disease, beads made from inflammable celluloid or similar substances, raw coffee imported overland or by inland waterways, counterfeit currency, contaminated food declared unfit for human consumption, dangerous weapons such as knuckle dusters, life preservers, flick knives, and other knives considered dangerous by the Inspector-General of Police.

Ghana also prohibits or restricts defamatory, scandalous, demoralizing, indecent, or obscene printed materials and articles, as well as goods that are prohibited under any other applicable law in Ghana.

Additional prohibited or controlled commodities may include fireworks of all kinds, pornographic materials, and military arms and ammunition. Military arms and ammunition may only be imported with the proper permit from Ghana’s Ministry of Interior.

⚠️ Important Import Notice

Before shipping cargo to Ghana, importers should verify product eligibility, HS code classification, duty rates, permit requirements, and customs documentation with Ghana Customs, the Ghana Revenue Authority, or a licensed customs broker.

🚫 Vehicle Import Restrictions in Ghana

Ghana no longer prohibits the importation of older vehicles. The previous restriction on importing vehicles over ten (10) years old has been repealed.

As a result, importers may legally import older used vehicles into Ghana. However, vehicles exceeding ten (10) years from the year of manufacture may be subject to significantly higher duties, taxes, levies, and fees imposed by Ghana Customs and other regulatory authorities.
