Fellow citizens,

Dear Ghanaian friends,

On 15^th March 2023, I started my duty as Ambassador of the Republic of Türkiye to the Republic of Ghana.

I am proud to represent Türkiye in Ghana, a country that shaped the history of the continent and leads Africa’s integration efforts.

Türkiye and Ghana established diplomatic relations in 1958, soon after Ghana’s independence. Our Embassy in Accra is one of the first Turkish diplomatic missions in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Türkiye-Ghana relations are built on a strong foundation, and constantly deepening and diversifying.

Ghana is among the top in Africa in offering favorable business environment, a quality that attracts many Turkish investors. In addition, it is also among the top five business partners of Türkiye in the sub-continent.

During my tour of duty, I will strive to extract the full potential of Türkiye-Ghana economic/trade cooperation to the benefit of both countries.

I am also excited about the opportunity to contribute towards Türkiye-Africa partnership by bolstering our institutional relations with the African Continental Free Trade Area Secretariat. The Secretariat is hosted by Ghana in its capital Accra, which represents another reflection of its leadership role in African integration agenda.

It is inspiring to see the friendship bond between the two countries and peoples reinforced through the projects and education opportunities we provide in Ghana as a development partner. Turkish NGOs operating across Ghana to offer humanitarian relief and development activities also bring our nations even closer.

It is one of the priorities of the Embassy to provide fast, effective and technology-assisted consular services. We are at your disposal 24/7 via our e-consulate and call center services.

We post announcements on updates concerning our citizens on our official website and via our Twitter account (@TC_ACCRA_EMBSY).

Please accept my sincere appreciation, warm greetings and regards.

Hüseyin Güngör

Ambassador
