The South African immigration legislation is relatively complex.
According to our experiences, many foreigners are easily confused
about the different ways one can immigrate to
South Africa.
Just one of the reasons is that naturally not
everyone has the time, nor the understanding of the South African
Immigration Act. Furthermore, there are many different interpretations
of these regulations which can lead to misunderstanding.
For your better understanding, our partners Imcosa have compiled a
comprehensive information brochure, which will hopefully answer
your initial questions. Please feel free to contact us at
any stage, whether it is related to feedback, advice or positive
