@ToBeHappydon't make the mistake of applying for a GH visa. The airline just needs to make sure you have the required document to enter GH; that's it. Check in with your GH passport when leaving US to Ghana. I have done this countless times. Also, don't mess with dual citizenship cert; it's a money grab. The GH Supreme Court has already ruled it's NOT needed to travel to GH as a citizen.

 

Detailed instructions below:

*Traveling with Two Passport to Ghana*

 

--Departing USA to GHA--

3. Boarding: Board with GHA Passport

 

--Arriving in GHA--

1. At GHA Immigration(Arrival): Show GHA passport (They might ask you how you'll be returning to the USA, then declare to them you have a USA passport because you are a dual citizen)

2. Luggage Check (Arrival): Show GHA passport (if requested)

Hi, I have a quick question.

I’m having a long layover in Europe, so I plan on spending some few hours inside the country. Which passport should I use for time in Europe?

You can't use your GH passport to exit the airport in Europe without a visa. So while in Europe, use your US passport to go explore on your long layover.
