FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

What determines air freight transit time from the USA to Ghana?

Transit time depends on the departure gateway, the carrier’s schedule and frequency on the lane, the commodity, and how quickly clearance is completed on arrival. We quote the transit for your specific shipment rather than a generic figure.

Air freight is charged on the greater of actual and volumetric weight, plus origin handling, security screening, and destination charges. Duties and taxes are assessed separately by the authorities. We quote the all-in cost for your shipment before booking.

Clearance is handled by GRA. The consignee needs a Ghana Revenue Authority TIN registered on ICUMS. Ghana prohibits commercial import of a defined set of used goods, and the Ghana Standards Authority screens 20 categories of High Risk Goods at entry; restricted goods need a regulator permit before ICUMS authorises release.

We route through Accra (ACC), Kumasi (KMS), Tamale (TML), with onward delivery beyond the gateway.

The Ghana Standards Authority inspects High Risk Goods across 20 product categories at entry, where a Certificate of Analysis or Certificate of Conformance from a competent laboratory must be produced or the consignment is held for testing.

Goods are assessed under the ECOWAS Common External Tariff (there is no US-Ghana free trade agreement).

Commercial invoice, packing list, air waybill, ICUMS customs declaration with a Unique Consignment Reference, and a Certificate of Analysis or Conformance for High Risk Goods.

The harmattan runs roughly from December to February and reduces visibility at Ghanaian airports; the Civil Aviation Authority has warned it can cause delays and diversions at Kotoka International.
