Departure of Ukrainians to Africa: what should be considered?
Ukrainian citizens can obtain one of the following types of exit permits:
- Tourist visa.
This visa allows for one- or two-entry trips. Ukrainians receive a “corridor” for a period of 3 months (90 days from the moment of entry into the territory of South Africa). If a person applies for a single-entry visa, the period of stay in the territory of the Republic of South Africa is determined by the period of hotel reservation and the data in the invitation.
- Transit visa.
This visa can be obtained directly on the way (for example, when transferring to another flight). Important: with a transit visa, a tourist cannot leave the airport customs zone. The maximum period for issuing transit documents is 72 hours. A transit visa cannot be issued at a visa center or consulate.
- National type visa.
This visa is intended for Ukrainians and other foreigners who plan to study in the Republic of South Africa. This visa will also be needed to legally work in the territory of this republic. The conditions for obtaining the document are the presence of an invitation from a university, employer, etc.
If you need advice on obtaining a visa to South Africa, our lawyers will provide all the necessary information.
It should be noted that our fellow citizens can obtain permission to travel to the Republic of South Africa by applying to the visa center, which cooperates with the consulate of this country. To be guaranteed to receive a visa, you need to fill out the application form correctly, enter truthful data, and prepare all necessary documents.
