Applications and enquiries may  be submitted through the Department of Home Affairs VFS Global website below. Delegates from African countries must pay specific attention to Yellow Fever vaccination requirements where relevant.

All requirements are subject to change without notice.  Note:  As each application is treated as an individual case, enquiries should still be made with your nearest South African mission or consulate abroad to see whether or not you are required to apply for a visa for peace of mind.
