加纳总统 John Dramani Mahama 先生宣布，加纳与中国已原则上达成协议，将给予加纳产品进入中国市场的零关税待遇，正式协议预计于 2025 年 10 月底签署。

他还透露将通过新投资法案为长期投资者开辟获得加纳公民身份的途径，该法案将取消外资及合资企业投资者的最低资本要求。

2025 年 10 月中旬，在北京举行的总统投资论坛上，Mahama 总统表示市场准入与投资者激励这两项措施，是其政府深化经济联系、推动加纳工业增长计划的核心内容。

"我很高兴地告知各位，我们已达成原则性协议，并计划在十月底前签署零关税协定。" 他表示："新《投资促进管理局法案》将取消外资及合资企业的最低资本要求，并为长期投资者获得加纳公民身份提供明确路径。"

Mahama 总统指出，这些措施是重新平衡贸易、吸引投资、确保加纳民众从国家 "重置议程" 和 "24 小时经济愿景" 中受益的整体战略组成部分。"我们希望与各位携手共创人民共同进步、共享繁荣的未来。" 他对与会者说道。

据总统透露，2024 年加中贸易额达 118 亿美元。零关税安排将为加纳出口商、农产品加工商和制造商开辟新市场，有助于缩小当前偏向进口的贸易逆差。

总统向投资者保证，加纳法律保护投资免受歧视、征收和国有化影响，并允许以可兑换货币无限制汇出股息。他补充道，加纳加入的国际仲裁公约及逾三十年的民主稳定记录，为投资者信心提供了坚实基础。

"我们的法律保护投资免受歧视、征收和国有化，这符合国际最佳实践。" 他强调："三十多年的民主稳定是投资者信心的最强保障。"

Mahama 总统表示，拟议的公民身份路径将对为经济作出长期增值贡献的投资者形成强激励，称其为 "信任与归属的象征"。

Mahama 总统还邀请中国投资者参与包括百亿美元 "大推进" 基建计划、沃尔特经济走廊农工产业园、以及横跨大阿克拉、沃尔特和东部地区的绿色数字城等国家重大项目。

"加纳敞开商业大门，我们欢迎创新，尤其期待与中国伙伴开展合作。" 他说道。

Mahama 总统指出，市场准入优惠、投资保护与拟议公民路径的结合，标志着加中关系进入推动工业化、技术转移和共同增长的新阶段。

"这将是一场双赢合作。你们在加纳的成功投资将是我们共同的成就。" Mahama 总统总结道。

Ghana, China to Sign Zero-Tariff Deal by End-October; Citizenship Path Planned for Long-Term Investors – Mahama

President John Dramani Mahama has announced that Ghana and China have reached an agreement in principle to grant Ghanaian products zero-tariff access to the Chinese market, with the formal signing expected by the end of October 2025.

He also disclosed plans to create a pathway to Ghanaian citizenship for long-term investors through a new investment law that will remove minimum capital requirements for foreign and joint venture investors.

Speaking at the Presidential Investment Forum in Beijing, China, on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, President Mahama stated that the two measures, market access and investor incentives, form the core of his administration’s plan to deepen economic ties and drive Ghana’s industrial growth.

“I’m happy to inform you that we reached an agreement in principle, and we have targeted the end of October to be able to sign off on the zero-tariff principle,” he said. “A new Investment Promotion Authority Bill will abolish minimum capital requirements for foreign and joint venture investors and will provide a clear path for long-term investors to qualify for Ghanaian citizenship.”

Mr Mahama said the measures were part of a broader effort to rebalance trade, attract investment, and ensure that Ghanaians benefit from the country’s “reset agenda” and “24-hour economy vision.”

“We want to work with you as we build a future of shared progress and shared prosperity for our peoples,” he told the gathering.

According to Mr Mahama, trade between Ghana and China reached 11.8 billion dollars in 2024. He said the zero-tariff arrangement would open new markets for Ghanaian exporters, agro-processors, and manufacturers, and help reduce the trade gap that currently favours imports.

Mr Mahama assured investors that Ghana’s laws protect investment against discrimination, expropriation, and nationalisation, and allow unrestricted repatriation of dividends in convertible currencies.

He added that the country’s membership in international arbitration conventions and its record of over 30 years of democratic stability provide a strong foundation for investor confidence.

“Our laws protect investment against discrimination, expropriation and nationalisation, which is consistent with international best practice,” he said. “Our democratic stability of more than three decades is the strongest guarantee of investor confidence.”

The President said the proposed citizenship pathway would serve as a strong incentive for investors who make long-term, value-adding contributions to the economy, describing it as “a symbol of trust and belonging.”

Mr Mahama also invited Chinese investors to take part in major national projects, including the 10 billion-dollar Big Push Infrastructure Programme, agro-industrial parks under the Volta Economic Corridor, and a planned green digital city that will span the Greater Accra, Volta, and Eastern regions.

“Ghana is open for business, we are open to innovation, and we are open to partnerships, especially with our Chinese counterparts,” he said.

Mr Mahama said the combination of preferential market access, investor protections, and the proposed citizenship pathway marks a new phase in Ghana-China relations aimed at driving industrialisation, technology transfer, and shared growth.

“Ours will be a win-win partnership. Your success in Ghana and investments will be our shared success,” he added.
