Ghana’s Parliament has passed an investment bill that introduces citizenship by investment (CBI) into the country’s investment legislation for the first time.
The clause does not create a program. It directs the Ministry of the Interior to draft the citizenship rules at a later date. Nothing in the bill sets a price, a qualifying investment, or a deadline.
What the bill actually says
Section 39 of the Ghana Investment Promotion Authority Bill, 2026 stands under its own heading. In full, it reads: “The Ministry of the Interior shall, in consultation with the Authority and in accordance with the Constitution and any other applicable legislation, enact legislation relating to citizenship by investment.”
That is the entire clause. It lists no donation, no real estate option, no fund route, and no processing time.
Design of any future program falls to the Interior Ministry, with the new Ghana Investment Promotion Authority (GIPA) in a consulting role. The Finance Ministry sponsored the bill, and its minister, Cassiel Ato Forson, signed the accompanying memorandum.
