About us
The Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) started as the Immigration and Passport Unit of the Gold Coast Colonial Police Force under the command of Mr. Neville C. Hill, a British national. The Service had earlier on operated alongside Customs in the Customs Long Room at James Town where the old harbour is situated. The political status and economic circumstances of the time were such that it handled very minimal human traffic. In 1960, the CPP government realized that the functions of the Immigration under the then Colonial Police was to be expanded to meet the political and economic needs at that time. In May 1960, there was a Cabinet decision to transfer the Immigration Unit to the Ministry of the Interior as a department.
