As a general rule, it's not a very good idea to buy plane tickets before you arrange for the visa, or at least plan for it (if a ticket is indeed need, as is the case here)... | |

| Jun 13, 2023 at 12:08 | comment | added | jcaron | @LarsHoldgaard in the DHA home page dha.gov.za “e Visa - Online VISA applications open for Nationals from KENYA, CAMEROON, IRAN, EGYPT, PHILIPPINES, SAUDI ARABIA, ETHIOPIA, PAKISTAN, DR, MEXICO, INDIA, CHINA, NIGERIA and UGANDA who will land at OR Tambo International airport”. Though I have no idea if this up to date, all the visa-related stuff on the various DHA and embassy sites is in a sorry state with lots of inconsistent information… | |

| Jun 13, 2023 at 6:00 | comment | added | Lars Holdgaard | @jcaron Super interesting with e-visa. Where do you see it required arrivalin JNB? I | |

| Jun 12, 2023 at 23:18 | comment | added | jcaron | Not that the e-visa requires you to arrive via JNB I believe. | |
| Jun 12, 2023 at 23:17 | comment | added | jcaron | Did you check if an e-visa wouldn’t be possible? Also I suppose that if your bank account is in Dubai that’s because you are resident there? Shouldn’t you apply from there? Also where did you find a limit on how much in advance you can apply? Since you must apply at least 2 weeks prior to travel, I don’t expect a higher limit under 2 or 3 months… | |
