Applying
for your Section 11(2) Visitors Visa with Work Conditions
This visa
must be applied for abroad in your country of residence. Applications must be
logged and processed by the responsible South African Embassy or consulate.
The Section 11 (2) Permits requires an approval letter which is a once off
non-renewable permit allowing one to work in South Africa and cannot be changed
into another type of permit in South Africa.
Only staff or employed by a legitimate, registered entity will be granted this type of visa, but every application must be accompanied by a comprehensive explanation as to why the worker is needed to conduct short term work and here we will guide you in this process
We have done in excess of 1500 of these visas
The document must also be supported by a motivational letter from the applicant detailing why they are needed in South Africa and what the nature of their visit will be.
Note the Act allows for 1 extension for a maximum of 3 months whereupon applicant has to return to country of application or residence , ie you get 6 months and upon return home you can apply again and the process will repeat itself
Who does not qualify for a Section 11 Visitors Permit “Work Authorisations”?
In our experience it is however advisable to consult a professional immigration consultant such as SA Migration should you be unsure of which visa best suite your needs or if the visa bearer might need more than 90 days to conclude their business.
According to the South African Department of Home Affairs this type of visa will not be issued to the following occupations:
-
Self-employed persons
- Contract Workers
- Exotic Dancers
- Project Management Workers
- Casual Labourers
- Seasonal Labourers
- Work Seeking Persons
