Worth knowing
- We do not publish a South African visitor visa fee because the Department of Home Affairs does not publish one centrally. Ask the mission you are applying to, and get the amount in writing.
- South Africa has no single national application tracker. Anyone claiming to check your file for a fee is not working with Home Affairs.
