Passport and Visa
A valid Canadian passport is required for Canadians or Americans intending to visit South Africa. The passport must be valid for a period of at least 30 days beyond the date of your expected departure from South Africa. Visitors also require a return ticket.
Visitors arriving in South Africa with a full passport (i.e. no space for the necessary South African Temporary Resident Permit or visa, at least two pages), will be denied entry.
Please ensure you have sufficient blank pages for travel to neighbouring countries and back to South Africa for the whole duration of your trip.
