Traveling from Ghana to Canada involves several steps, including preparing travel documents, booking flights, and ensuring you meet all health and safety requirements. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:
1. **Check Passport Validity**
Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your planned date of entry into Canada.
