What do I need to know?
What are the basic requirements to apply for a South African visa?
To apply for a South African visa, you must meet several criteria, including having a valid passport, proof of sufficient funds, a completed visa application form, and supporting documents specific to the visa type you’re applying for. Requirements vary depending on whether you’re applying for a work, study, business, or residency visa.
How long does the immigration process typically take?
The duration of the immigration process depends on the type of visa or residency you’re applying for and the completeness of your application. Generally, the process can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Our team will keep you updated and ensure your application progresses smoothly.
Can I apply for permanent residency directly, or do I need to apply for a temporary visa first?
In most cases, applicants must apply for a temporary residency permit first and meet specific criteria before being eligible to apply for permanent residency. However, certain categories, such as highly skilled workers or business owners, may qualify for direct permanent residency under specific circumstances.
What should I do if my visa application is rejected?
If your visa application is rejected, you may have the option to appeal or reapply. It’s important to carefully review the reasons for the rejection and correct any errors or missing documents. Our team can help you understand the rejection and guide you through the steps to improve your chances of approval.
Can family members be included in my visa application?
Yes, many visa types allow you to include immediate family members, such as your spouse and dependent children, in your application. The family members must meet the relevant criteria and provide necessary documentation. Our team can assist in preparing family applications to ensure a smooth process.
