shigo04: Wow. Sometimes what causes these delay is maybe you didn’t give them sufficient information or somethings were not just right with the application. He/she should contact VFS or SA consulate for assistance. And it’s advisable to apply for SA visa at least 6 Months earlier before the day of departure and all supporting document must be clear, legible and authentic. |

Tryhard: The fellow contacted SA embassy in Abuja and fortunately the high commissioner responded to his mail. He said, the type of visa he applied for is adjudicated at the home affair South Africa, and as a mission in Nigeria, they await the outcome of the application before they can get back to the fellow. |

Pls did anyone here who applied for eVisa have challenge with document uploaded? I'm using PDF format and it keeps saying upload failed. It does show as uploaded when I refresh the page. But once I log off and log back in, everything vanishes. Any clues or guidance will be highly appreciated so I can proceed to make payment without any fears. Thank you. |

Pls I need guidance on filling the South African e-Visa form. I am have completed the first stage but unable to proceed to the second stage where I need to upload my documents.

Good morning, The information I am about to share with you may be helpful to one or two people. A common adage we all know is "make hay when the sun shines.". Back when obtaining a Permanent Residence permit in South Africa was easier and stress-free, many people advised us to apply regardless of whether we needed it. Some of us ignored the call, while others applied and got it right away! With the permit, I have been presented with many opportunities, and I am grateful for Mr. Mandela's fight for equal opportunity. Nowadays, it is difficult to obtain any type of visa in South Africa or outside of it. What's the reason? The economic downturn caused by Covid-19 and the Russian-Ukraine war is sweeping the globe, and South Africa is not immune. In what sense does this mean? At the moment, South Africa is facing many challenges. Considering the high unemployment rate, and those who are looking for cheap political points, most locals are advocating extreme measures on immigration. A second reason is that South Africa is trying to limit the number of economic immigrants looking for a safe haven in their country. Therefore, some categories of visas have been halted, technically. This is not Nigerian-related. What are the implications of this development? 1. A student or prospective hustler living in South Africa no longer has a better opportunity to hustle. Scholarships and funding are difficult to obtain for research master's and doctoral degrees unless you are a permanent resident. 2. South Africa does not allow you to extend your visitor visa while you are there. Your chances of ending up on the streets are high without a permit! Advice 1. Your travel history may determine whether you can get your visa for a vacation in South Africa. Other countries, even those in Africa, may be of interest to you. If you're thinking about studying, why not consider other options? My personal observations are not intended to discourage you from leaving Nigeria for greener pastures abroad, only to indicate that the pastures no longer seem green. Also, keep in mind that we have different fates. 1 Like |

Confidence05: Click submit, and proceed to upload. But I advise u do a paper application, I couldn't go past the upload documents, the site sucks. You may be lucky if you give it a try. But I'm submitting via VFS asap. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by antzlaive(m): 4:50am On Aug 28, 2022 |
AskGod07:Na very useless site. I wonder who designed it. Very poor interface. I was lucky not to even get to the payment page. I got stuck trying to upload documents with no luck. |
Re: General South Africa Visa Enquiries by cucumbar: 11:27am On Aug 28, 2022 |
Gidariro:the point is that they fail to make a decision in time and return people’s passport. It’s not compulsory you grant people visas, but make a decision in time, weather favorable or not, and return someone’s passport. I was thinking of traveling to SA in December for vacation, but can’t apply, eventhough i have been there before and also have good travel history, because I fear they may decide to hold my passport for 6months. 1 Like |
