Referring to my previous post (https://www.expat.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=66367), the Immigration Amendment Bill was approved in the National Assembly.
This will have far reaching consequences for foreign nationals wanting to emigrate to South Africa.
At this stage many of the requirements seem to have remained the same, however, the process of applying for residency has been brought more in line with international standards.
More details to follow soon.
If there are any questions, please feel free to ask.
