Event: Repatriation Information Update – Trusted Sources of Information
We ask all U.S. citizens to please pay attention only to authoritative sources of information, such as U.S. Embassy messages (like this one), our website, and our official social media feeds (links below) for the most current and accurate information regarding our chartered repatriation planning. Unofficial social media platforms, word-of-mouth, well-meaning friends, and other forms of secondhand information are often unreliable, containing inaccurate information about the Embassy’s ongoing efforts to facilitate the return to the United States of U.S. citizens seeking to depart Ghana. Please encourage concerned friends and family to visit our website to confirm the validity of any information they may have heard. The U.S. Embassy has notified all STEP enrollees and those who have emailed their desire to return to the United States with information on requesting space on any future chartered repatriation flights. If you have not already, please enroll yourself in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) to receive security updates.
