🛫 Travel Advisory & Visa Requirements for Participants
💉 Yellow Fever Vaccination — Mandatory Entry Requirement
All foreign participants attending the NORMXI 2025 Symposium in Accra, Ghana, must be vaccinated against Yellow Fever prior to applying for E-visa. This is a compulsory health requirement enforced by the Government of Ghana. You cannot apply for E-visa without submitting proof of Yellow Fever vaccination.
Important: The Yellow Fever certificate becomes valid 10 days after the vaccination, so ensure you take the vaccine well in advance of travel.
This requirement applies to all travelers, including those from visa-exempt African countries. No traveler will be permitted entry into Ghana without this vaccination record.
