Business Visa Solutions for Expatriates in South Africa

A South African business visa is available to foreign nationals who wish to start their own business or invest in an existing business in South Africa. To qualify, applicants must invest a minimum of R5 million from abroad into the business. This investment must be certified by an accountant to remain part of the underlying book value of the business.

The Department of Home Affairs in South Africa requires the business to be legitimate, supported by comprehensive business plans, and compliant with SARS and other necessary registrations. Additionally, at least 60% of the employees must be South African citizens or permanent residents.

In certain sectors deemed crucial for local enterprise and development, such as information technology, tourism, clothing, and textiles, the Director-General may waive or reduce the required investment amount. These sectors are recognized by the Department of Trade and Industry.
