Visa and Passport Information
Please note that visitors from outside South Africa who wish to travel to
South Africa must have a passport that is valid for at least 30 days after the
intended return date from South Africa.
All non-South African passport holders are required to have at least 1
unused visa page for entry/departure endorsements by South African
Immigration Service in their passport and passport replacing documents,
each time entry is sought into South Africa. These pages are in addition to
the endorsement/amendment pages at the back of the passport. South
African government regulations prohibit airlines from boarding
passengers without the required blank visa page.
Minors up to 15 years of age with German citizenship can use their identity
document ("Kinderausweis") to enter South Africa provided that the
Kinderausweis contains a photo of the bearer and has one entirely
unstamped page.
Please note that this does not include the page reserved

Travelling to the United Arab Emirates Abu Dhabi ?
Travelling to the United Arab Emirates Abu Dhabi offers more than perfect
sandy beaches and year-round sun. As the national airline of the United
Arab Emirates, it is our mission and our pleasure to ensure that our
guests enjoy their stay here. That’s why we are now offering a quicker visa
processing service to all our guests, in association with TT Services. Now,
the citizens of the Republic of South Africa and other foreign nationals that
reside in the Republic of South Africa who are travelling to Abu Dhabi on
Etihad Airways can apply for visa at the UAE Visa Processing Centre in
South Africa. All Visa applications are considered on individual merit, and
the Immigration Department has the right to seek additional information at
any stage of processing. The fact that an application for a visa has been
received at the UAE Visa Application Centre does not guarantee that the
visa will be issued. UAE Immigration reserves the right to refuse a visa
without assigning any reason whatsoever. South African nationals should
ensure that they hold a valid visa for the UAE before they travel to the UAE.
Visas cannot be issued on arrival at any of the entry points in the UAE. We
look forward to welcoming our guests. Whether you’re travelling to the

Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA). Beginning on
September 8, 2010, most new and renewal applicants for ESTA travel
authorization will be required to pay a $14 fee. This memo serves as
information only. There will be no changes to the processing of VWP
applicants.
The $14 fee will be charged for most applications and is required for two
purposes:
ESTA processing: A $4 fee will recover the costs incurred by U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for the continued operation and
maintenance of the ESTA system. This fee will be required for all new
applications including the renewal of previous applications.
Travel Promotion Act of 2009 (TPA): Pursuant to the TPA, every
approved ESTA application will require an additional $10 for a total of
$14.00. If the ESTA application is denied, the applicant will be charged
only $4.00 for the processing of the application.
Payment for ESTA applications must be made by credit or debit card when
applying for or renewing an ESTA at https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/ , the
following credit cards are accepted: MasterCard, VISA, American Express,
and Discover. Payment may also be made with a debit card that has the
VISA or MasterCard symbol. A third party, such as a relative or travel agent
may pay the fees for each application. ESTA applications will not be
submitted for processing until all payment information is received. CBP is
continuing to explore other payment measures for the future.
All other requirements for ESTA and travel under the VWP remain the
same.
South African passport requirements
South African Airways wishes to advise customers travelling to
international destinations that their passports must be signed on the
space provided at the bottom of the page that lists contact details. Please
note that this is a requirement from the SA Department of Home Affairs to
which SAA has to comply. In order to ensure a smooth and pleasant travel
experience, we would appreciate your compliance in this regard.
South African Transit Visa requirements
The South African Department of Home Affairs issued an urgent directive
advising all airlines and travellers of the reinstatement of the Transit Visa
in South Africa. The Transit Visa requirement is effective as of 01 June
2010.
A transit visa is required for all non-visa exempt foreigners who are
travelling through South Africa en route to any one of the following
neighbouring countries: Kingdom of Lesotho, Kingdom of Swaziland,
Namibia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Mozambique. Passengers may not be
accepted for travel unless they are in possession of a transit visa.
South African immigration requires all travel documents to contain at least
one blank visa page upon arrival in South Africa. This is to allow sufficient
room for a visitor's permit (if required) and all entry and exit stamps.
