1 General information about South African visas Visitors visas are for international travellers (citizens of other countries) who have permanent residence outside South Africa and who wish to visit the country on a temporary basis for tourism or business purposes for a period of 90 days or less. A visa will allow you to travel to a South African port of entry where an immigration official will determine if you are allowed to enter South Africa and how long you can stay for that particular visit. Visitors are restricted to the activity or reason for which their visas were issued. On entry into South Africa, a visa is considered to be a visitor s permit. The permit s period of validity is calculated from the date of entry into the country and will be set out under the heading conditions on the visa label. You must ensure that you apply for the correct visa/permit. Who needs a visa to visit South Africa? Requirements for visitors visas differ from country to country and the requirements are subject to change. As each application is treated as an individual case, you should make enquiries with your nearest South African mission or consulate abroad to see whether or not you are required to apply for a visa. There is a fee charged for issuing a visa, and you should check the cost with the office. This fee is payable in different currencies in different countries. Visas are not issued at South African ports of entry, and airline officials are obliged to insist on visas before allowing passengers to board. Foreigners with long-term status (work permits/ permit residence) in neighbouring countries who transit the Republic to return to their employment or residence are not subject to the transit visa, provided they are in possession of proof of their status.

8 Customs requirements for travellers South Africa recently made changes to the way we process travellers. One of the biggest changes is the introduction of a Traveller Card (also called a TC-01 form), which will need to be completed by those arriving in South Africa who have something to declare when passing through customs. Red or green channel? After arriving in South Africa, you need to complete the Traveller Card before proceeding to immigration. After reporting to immigration, collect your baggage and then proceed to the red or green customs channel or to the customs counter. The following customs channels must be followed, depending on your circumstances: If you have in your possession any prohibited/ restricted goods and/or goods which fall outside your duty-free allowance, or if you are unsure whether any goods in your possession fall within these categories, please proceed to the red channel. If you have something to declare, your Traveller Card and passport will be scanned and you can make a verbal declaration which is captured on the system by a customs officer. This information forms the basis of a Traveller Declaration form (TRD1). The TRD1 will also be used as a Temporary Import Permit (TIP) and Temporary Export Permit (TXP). If you are happy with the information on the TRD1, you will be asked to sign on an electronic signature pad and your signature will be captured on the system. The signed TRD1 is then printed and handed back to you. If the goods in your possession fall within your duty-free allowance, you do not have any prohibited or restricted goods in your possession, you are not in possession of any commercial goods (imported for trade purposes) and you are not in possession of gifts, carried on behalf of others, please proceed to the green channel, unless otherwise instructed by a customs official. You may be stopped, questioned or searched by a customs officer at any time in the red or green channel.
