The system, which is based on the African union trusted travel and ECOWAS biomars standard, is being implemented by the ministry of health through the Ghana health service.

This is expected to provide an ease of verification prior to travel and upon arriving in the country, and also help stop the circulation of fake test results which could damage the country’s effort against the spread of covid-19 through imported cases.
