Urgent - Refused Entry At South Africa’s Port Of Entry by Tap12345: 7:29am On Oct 18, 2018
hello house.

my brother was granted a 6 months multiple entry tourist visa to South Africa. However, he was denied entry at the port of entry and put back on a plane to nigeria some days later.

apparently, he had cancelled his hotel booking as he planned to stay with his friend for the duration of his 2 weeks holiday - this was the reason why he was refused entry.

his passport was stamped with 'admission applicable for', however, there is no stamp on the visa itself.

my question is: is he able to travel again to south africa using the same visa? he plans to travel again next month but this time around making sure his hotel reservation is valid for the entire duartion of his stay. he has no intention this time of staying with any friend.

any advise/suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Please I need answers urgently. Thank you

pls did he have to declare the 'refusal of entry' at subsequent visa applications to countries like UK, US, etc?

my brother is a bit worried on the effect of this refusal for subsequent applications to other countries. we are unsure if the SA database of denied entry is accessible to other countries outside africa
