Why this verdict
Ghanaian citizens' entry guidance is based on the RMI Immigration March 2024 visa exemption / waiver / visa-on-arrival summary. Official source label: not listed in the March 2024 RMI visa-exempt/waiver or visa-on-arrival summary. This guidance is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, short visitor travel only. Work, study, residence, diplomatic/service passports, official missions, research, extensions, change of status, carrier handling, onward-entry documents and Marshall Islands immigration discretion can change the practical answer. Reconfirm on the official RMI Immigration source before booking.
