she answers as many comments as she can...WOW what a good SPIRIT... not many people do that 😊
Dr Harnet I like your energy for Africa and please can you advocate for Liberia as well, Liberia needs exposure too and not far from where you are standing thanks
Half a million dollars you might as well stay in the states!
It is quiet interesting to run business in Africa, but I have to be 100% sure about my target market.
What is your target market?
Thank you so much, your videos are very helpful. I am learning things I did not know.
I need some coaching and I take it that you are a good source on the ins and out.....
keep the info coming ... my hope is to get on board
Great to hear that, Bernard!
If ghana is only excepting business start ups from 1M and up, ghana's not helping the black people become business men.
Watch to the end!
@L ion how?
you are great madam ...very informative video
very awesome.i like that
Thanks a lot, Aji!
I checked the Ghana investment promotion center and WOW. is there investment capital for businesses HIGH. I wanted to volunteer teaching my new method of making a cement fabric for infrastructure, my new desalination method, and my CSP steam engine design for massive permaculture systems, but as a startup with limited capital and connections, and more realistically, an african in america wanting to emigrate back to the motherland, this is extremely disheartening. It's like Africa is making me jump through hoops just to return to the land of my ancestors
Bro.. I am a Ghanaian living in the United Kingdom with my family and planning of starting business in Ghana. Lets talk and see what the future can offer for both of us..
How can I join in?

It seems like Ghana wants to encourage foreign investors to work WITH Ghanaian business rather than just buy Ghana out. I can respect the protectionist move. Just partner with a Ghanaian and spend $200k also like she said exports, manufacturing, and portfolio investments are exempt.
Am A Ghanaian am very proud of you pls how can I get ur contest
God bless Africa
Thanks

Thanks for Sharing, appreciate very much your valuable and impressive informations, very informative. I been to Accra twice unfortunately for a trading Company they are asking one million dollars for equity for a Trading Company involved in import and wholesales, for free zone they have restrictions that any thing manufactured will be sold in local market and very small percentage is allowed to export. I did worked very hard, but unfortunately could not made it due to so heavy requirements on investment and equity. I wanted to establish textile import and wholesale business. But they have so many res tapes. Beside, their Visa allocation is too strict from Pakistan as every time they demand whole bunch of documents to be presented, no benefit on repeat Visa. Now again I been planning to visit Accra but due to Visa stupidity I am looking for other African destination with facility of own sea port. And following your information on your channel considering Kenya.
Now. are speaking of individually or as a group. If you are a foundation, there are ways to getting around normal protocols...
Peace Sister, I will be in Ghana from May 23rd to June 5th. I hope to get the chance to sit down and talk. You share some great news. I'm looking to start several businesses.
Excellent, I wish you all the very best for your trip and your business start-up in Ghana! Well done!
did you go.... is it only for africans..
Until ghana and the rest of african can come up to some accountability there is no point bring that amount of money into the country also they MUST sort out the land issues with the chiefs selling lands
what a nightmare. how can an african in america consider coming home when its going to be as bad as america...i dont know if i should continue reading this videos comments
My DNA test says I'm from Ghana and I'm 26% European from the American slave trade. I traced my ancestors journey from Ghana to American south to the west coast of America. What will they consider me
You can keep whatever money you want from Ghana then. Many others are rushing to bring that money because the truth is there is more money gained than you know.
@Red Flare weirdo
What is your point about the lands,? Bear in mind the lands are not government property, the chiefs are the custodian owner of the lands. This is how it was being run before they took ur fathers out.
Nice though Madam
Dear Dr Harnet - this information is 3 years old. Any updates, please?
Can you do an updated video please?
Love from India. Medical tourism in india is cheap. Welcome
Hello I would like to learn more about portfolio investments in Ghana. I know some Ghanaians that do buisness with me here in the states and they encourage me constantly to invest in the country. I would like to learn more.
Hebrew Thought Shalom family inbox me on whatsapp +233540339375
Hebrew Thought What would you like to learn
so all I have to do is become a citizen of Ghana no sweat, is it true you can become a duel citizenship? I'm coming I'm going to run up that check
We are waiting
TheKing Speaks, will you like to come to Ghana?
I was so busy admiring your looks that I have to listen to the video again to hear what you are saying.....Thanks for all your hard work in educating potential investors...
Thanks for your kind feedback, Orestes!
Dr Harnett I am an American citizen Interested in starting a small business in Ghana. How can I do this?
@Chaz get a local lawyer to act on your behalf. They can register the company, hire an auditor and act as your company secretary and offer advice on business matters. As she said if you're starting in manufacturing or export you can use this route. Otherwise you need to contact the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre and have the $1m to invest or find a Ghanaian to partner with in which case you'd only need $200k to start up.
Please do a video on the market availability... Pls
Do u want to do business in Ghana
The process of allowing the descendants of slave victims during the transatlantic slave trade that was captured from West Africa by europeans called, the right of return should not be dependent on the amount of money there descendents bring to West Africa. This makes it look like west Africa is only interested in the money the descendants can bring to the countries in Africa. How many black people have a million dollars in the United States to invest in a business in Africa. Under 1% of the population. How many people would be involved in a business where they don't have any controls in the businesses. The descendants of the victims of the slave trade should have special privilege to return to there home land and to open businesses with out any problems with any visa or a lack of large amounts of capital. If they can make the journey back to there home land, they should be let in the country. You never know, They might turn sent the wrong. Dlion
Yes I agree. Sounds like another form of rape!
Yes no only investments how to live your own mother land with out working under some one not about millions bro came home we love you
@@rocketheboysalia4281 Your reply to the comment is not clearly understood. You should read your comment before you post them.
affermative action?
You need to LOBBY for this. Organize the black business chamber of commerce and send 100 delegates to meet up with an envoy of the Ghana's government and let them know you want this. But the problem is ya'll don't know how to organize yourselves. I would say we (because us Africans are not much better) but we're talking about what you guys want and I totally agree, you guys should have exemptions - ALL African people should have exemptions - we should always give each other better treatment over outsiders.
Hello Dr. Harnet, hopefully this message reaches you. Is their an official Ghanaian government website that has this information and guidelines on it? Being that this video was 2 years ago, I would like to keep abreast of changes in threshold being made. Thank you!
Where do you live dear
Information about all is easy I Amy help u in it
Yeah I want to start a business in Ghana after I finish college
Tracy Lowe Same here.Can I share my business idea and see if we can partner ?Thank you
Tracy Lowe Add me as a friend on TH-cam! youtu.be/addme/-a6lChlijWR8nwobNgqEpuTkstVqUg Let’s chat.Im a Ghanaian and in college now
D. R. Hadn't. Good. Afternoon.
The $1,000,000.00 and $200,000.00 minimum capital investment has been around for quite some time now, I 'm glad to know that President Akuffo-Addo's government is making strides to bring it down. You are doing a such a great Job, Dr. Bokrezion, there are many entrepreneurs in Ghana and Africa that need foreign investments.
Thanks for your motivating feedback, Jalel!
but the TOURIST HOTELS so expensive in africa.. all whites are not rich..
@@dr.harnet466 Hey Dr. Harnet i hope you are fine😊but i have questions can start business Ghana to Europa by boat?
This is still a requirement... 4 yrs later..
@@solomonlaine9366 No, only by plane or car. No boats.
Do you know where I might look to find out what certifications and degrees the Ghanaian government will recognize? I live and was educated in the United States.

I have a question about trade service in Ghana? Would I need capital at all, I know will need capital for vehicle, supplies, equipment but specifically for licensing? Would I need little to no minimum or will I need the 1,000,000???
Can we chart on Whatsapp to discuss about that?
When are you going to be in Ghana again?
I am a West-African/American now and I am exploring business opportunities. I know Africa has changed in the last 30 years when I left the continent but I am surprised Africa is one of the most expensive place to start a business. If Africa is “poor” why industrial structures are exorbitant in African’s economies (I am looking at Côte d’Ivoire.) This doesn’t make sense to me.
Go where its easier to start a business. Those other nations will see the progress of those places and remove their stupid red tape. I mean I was seriously thinking about starting a business in Ghana... but after being reminded that I might need $200,000+ just to be able to do business there, I'm taking my human resources and capital to Rwanda.
@@jzk2020Thanks for you response.
I heard people used the number $1 million a lot and I didn't believe that so I Googled/researched "Start a small business in Cote d'Ivoire" (or sometimes "Africa") but I couldn't believe: those business startups cost much more than American franchises and independent businesses.
When Africa will develop our middle class?
China is many times less expensive than Africa and China is #1 or #2 economy in the world. Why African governments are killing our own economies? Africa has 1.2 billion population (population quadrupled since I left Africa) and our brothers and sisters are buying products and consuming European and American companies.
For example, to start a business, you buy an equipment + 5% Customs PLUS + 18% business taxes while a government of an "Developing Country" assumes entrepreneurs are trying to make people's lives easier. Basically the government takes away 1/4th of your investment power before you even start. In my state (US) they don't tax production equipment for a reason.
What other country u will be visiting I’m interested in doing business in Africa I will travel to that country not a problem
Where do you live which business do want to do? Can we chart on Whatsapp +233551972969
Dr. Harnet are you by any chance an Eritrean national? you are wonderful.
i was wondering..
Yes, she is Eritrean.
United Nations of Africa--UNA 👑👑💪🏿💪🏿❤️❤️🇬🇭🇬🇭
Does the same apply for importing??
What do you want to import?
So I can start a business under my friends name because they are from Accra is this correct can I be a partner or does it all have to be in there name
Where do you live can we chart on Whatsapp if you don't mind +233551972969
@Andres if you're partnering with a Ghanaian you can be listed as a shareholder and as a Director of the company if you have the minimum 200k as she said. Otherwise if you want it solely in your name you have to have $1m. If you have less than $200k, then you can only be listed as a director of the company but not as a shareholder.
I would love to do business in Ghana and possibly move there, but my business does not seem to have a place there.
SEPARATE!! BUILD!! GROW!! PROSPER!! Do u mind if i ask what business u were looking forward to doing in Ghana

at a hefty cost apparently. they stole us away in chain, now we have to sell everything we made to survive here just to return
yes its true

Hello my fellow brothers and sisters across the globe. I thought I would use this kind young lady's platform, to present an opportunity for ONLY the so called black people IN THE DIASPORA across the globe that wish to repatriate back to Africa. The AfrikaBa Foundation's family head is Simon from GhanaMoneyTV(subscribe); and we at AfrikaBa established a platform on What'sApp that allows us to discuss not only making the transition from across the globe to Africa; but to unify us as a people. We discuss removing obstacles that you may have that may prevent anyone from repatriating. We discuss business ideas, strategies on repatriating permanently, and much much more . We are currently discussing ways on developing the group such as structuring as far as investing and the future development into the Our Motherland, inviting and welcoming new members, and we also are forming a scout team here in the U.S. to go to Ghana within like the next 90 days, to go to Ghana whether to visit or stay; gather information and bring back to the states. Below, I will post links to Facebook and What'sApp to the network. From there, you can patch into the network. I will be part of the scout team that leaves for Ghana in the first week of this coming February. So far, it is me and another brother named Dorell that is here with me in Seattle, WA who has been to Ghana and has people there. So, if you are on the fence about going because you feel you can not afford the trip, or you feel like you don't know anyone there, or for whatever reason you feel intimidated about exploring our ancestors homeland; PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE; BROTHERS AND SISTERS, DO NOT ALLOWTHESE THINGS STOP/ HINDER YOU FROM DOING SOMETHING GREAT. All I ask is that you come to the network and just sit in and listen. There is no fee, so it is TOTALLY FREE WITH NO OBLIGATIONS. PLEASE, ONLY SERIOUS PEOPLE WHO ARE BLACK; AND NO SOLICITERS OF ANY KIND. If you decide to come to the network; I promise you will feel like you are home...!!!! I'll see ya'll in the chat room....
Shalom, family(Peace unto you)...

im afraid to say this is not 100% tru information .
Millions dollars lol ok. You said it right the first time foreigners pay extra. Not appealing to me at all.
If u partner with a Ghanaian it comes down to about two hundred thousand. This is done so Ghanaians benefit from said company or u can just start an export business and u won’t need any minimum capital at all but if it’s still doesn’t look attractive to u it ok Gh isn’t for everyone
This sounds fishy
why Africa

Its just another option!
