Ghana Post Tracking, Delivery & Contact Info

Ghana Post is the designated postal operator of Ghana. Its origins date to the mid‑19th century, when postal services began under the colonial Post & Telecommunications Department. In 1995, Parliament enacted Act 505 to separate postal services from telecoms; by 1999 the company became Ghana Post Company Limited. Today, it runs nationwide post offices, EMS courier, financial/agency services and digital tools such as GhanaPostGPS and online tracking for letters and parcels.

Tracking is available for registered mail, parcels and EMS. Open the official Track & Trace tool, enter your 13‑character code (e.g., EE123456789GH or RR123456789GH), and view acceptance, transit, customs, delivery‑attempt and delivered events.

1. Open Ghana Post’s Track & Trace page on mobile or desktop.

3. Paste the number exactly as printed (no spaces).
4. Press the track/search button to load the latest scans (accepted, in‑transit, arrival at sorting centre, out for delivery, delivered).
5. For EMS items, you can also cross‑check on the global EMS site or the destination operator once the parcel leaves Ghana.

7. If a status is unchanged for several days, note the last event and contact Ghana Post Customer Service with the tracking number.

Ghana Post Delivery Times & Schedule

Delivery times vary by service, distance and customs. Within Ghana, EMS and Speedlink courier typically deliver documents and small parcels in about 1–3 working days between major cities, with longer times to remote areas.

International EMS commonly reaches many destinations in roughly 5–10 business days; registered/parcel services often require 7–14+ days depending on airline capacity and customs clearance. Use the tracking tool for real‑time checkpoints, and expect additional time during peak seasons or for dutiable imports.
