Accra is 2 hours behind Johannesburg. When it's 9:00 AM in Accra, it's 11:00 AM in Johannesburg. Neither city observes daylight saving time, so this difference remains constant year-round.
Accra follows Greenwich Mean Time (GMT, UTC+0), while Johannesburg uses South Africa Standard Time (SAST, UTC+2). The small time difference makes business coordination between West and Southern Africa very convenient.
Optimal meeting window: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Accra time (11:00 AM - 7:00 PM Johannesburg). The 2-hour difference allows for nearly complete overlap of business hours.
Ghana and South Africa are two of Africa's largest economies, with significant trade and investment ties. Both cities serve as major business hubs for their respective regions.
