What Should I Know About Refueling a Rental Car in Ghana?
In Ghana, most gas stations are full-service, meaning an attendant will pump the fuel for you. Be prepared to pay in cash (Ghanaian Cedis), as card acceptance is not widespread. Confirm the pump is at zero before they start. The main fuel types are petrol (super) and diesel; check your rental agreement to ensure you use the correct one for your vehicle.

Accra Car Rental & Driving Guide

Essential tips for renting a car and driving in Accra, Ghana

Can I drive in Ghana with my US license, or do I need an International Driving Permit?
US citizens can technically drive in Ghana with their US license alone, but an International Driving Permit (IDP) is strongly recommended. The IDP translates your license into multiple languages and is often required by rental companies and police checkpoints. Obtain one from AAA before your trip (about $20). Without it, you may face delays or fines of 50-200 GHS ($4-16).
Is it safe to drive in Accra? What are the actual road conditions like?
Accra's roads are challenging for unfamiliar drivers. Traffic drives on the RIGHT side with left-hand drive vehicles. Major hazards include: unmarked speed bumps (locally called 'sleeping policemen'), pedestrians and motorcycles weaving through traffic, potholes on side streets, and aggressive driving customs. Stick to main roads like Liberation Road and Kwame Nkrumah Avenue during peak hours (7-9am, 5-8pm). Highways to Cape Coast and Kumasi are in decent condition but have minimal lighting at night.
How much does fuel cost in Ghana, and are gas stations easy to find?
Gasoline (petrol) costs approximately 13-15 GHS per liter (about $1.05-1.20/gallon). Shell, Total, and GOIL are the major chains, and stations are plentiful in Accra and along highways. However, fuel shortages occasionally occur—keep your tank above half full. Diesel is also available. Most rentals run on petrol; confirm your vehicle's fuel type before departure.
What's the minimum age to rent a car in Ghana, and will I pay extra as a young driver?
The minimum age is typically 21 years old, but most Ghanaian rental companies charge a young driver surcharge for drivers under 25 (around $15-25/day). Some companies outright refuse to rent to under-25s during high season. If you're under 25, budget an extra $200-400 for the week in young driver fees and consider whether a driver/guide might be more cost-effective.
How do I handle police checkpoints and traffic stops in Ghana?
Police checkpoints are common throughout Ghana, especially outside Accra. Keep your documents (license, IDP, rental agreement, passport) easily accessible. Bribes ('dash' in local parlance) sometimes occur—US Embassy advises declining politely and asking for a receipt if an officer claims you've violated traffic law. Serious offenses go to court. Most interactions are routine if you have valid documentation; rental companies can provide a letter confirming your authorized use of the vehicle.
What should I know about parking in Accra before I park anywhere?
Street parking in Accra typically costs 2-10 GHS ($0.15-0.80) to a local attendant ('parking boy'). Secure parking lots charge 20-50 GHS ($1.60-4). Never leave valuables visible in your car—break-ins at beaches and markets are common. Many hotels and malls offer guarded parking. Note that parking on major roads during rush hour is technically illegal and your car may be towed (50-200 GHS fine plus towing fee).
