TLDR : Answer Summary

To obtain a visa for Thailand, citizens of Ghana should apply at the Thai Consulate, particularly the one located in Nigeria. It's important to note that Ghanaians may face restrictions when trying to secure new visas from Thai consulates in neighboring countries, as they are often required to return to their home country for visa applications.

Once they're already in Asia they're pretty much stuck because they're on the list of countries that go back to their country (or the consulate that issues visas FOR their country) to get new visas. They're on the prohibited country list for most thai consulates in neighboring countries.

You can apply if your citizen of these 21 countries, but still go the the Visa On Arrival desk at the airport to get the Visa. Hopefully it goes faster than the normal queu for this visa.

It appears Thailand does have an "e-visa on arrival" (i.e. you can apply for the visa online) at this time, but it's only for the visa on arrival countries. See

Or is this something else?

Thailand does not have the E-Visa yet, so that kind of help is not helping anybody. If he is still in Ghana he/she has to visit the Thai Embassy in Nigeria and apply there for a Visa. As there are many different kinds of Visa it is wise to check their website first and see if the person can meet the requirements.

my bad, question was rather vague. I’m told there is no Thai Embassy in Ghana and that the nearest is in Nigeria. Also had some anecdotal advice that travel agencies in Thailand can help with some kind of E-visa. The person enquiring is a little fragile and vulnerable so any experience from Ghanaian nationals appreciated!
