Is there a requirement to have a fully paid up share capital at the point of incorporation in Ghana?

No. Act 992 does not require fully paid-up share capital during incorporation, and neither does the act provide any statutory minimum capital requirements for companies limited by shares.

However, registration with the GIPC ordinarily requires evidence of the transfer of the minimum capital requirements for foreign participation into the country. For companies in specialised industries such as the financial and insurance sectors, there are also statutory minimum capital requirements that must be paid up.
