Ghana operates on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), which is Coordinated Universal Time (UTC+0). Unlike many countries, Ghana does not observe daylight saving time, so the offset remains constant throughout the year.
All of Ghana follows the same timezone. Major cities including Accra, Kumasi, Tamale, and Sekondi-Takoradi all observe GMT. This makes scheduling across Ghana straightforward, as there's no time difference within the country.
Ghana was the first sub-Saharan African country to gain independence from colonial rule in 1957. The Prime Meridian (0° longitude) passes through Ghana near Tema, making it one of the few countries where GMT is both the legal time and the natural solar time.
