A visitor's visa is for travellers resident outside South Africa visiting for tourism or business for 90 days or less.
Gather a passport valid 30+ days beyond your visit (with an unused page), a completed Form BI-84, and the prescribed fee.

- 予約枠は公開スケジュールなしでバッチ単位で解放されます。多くの場合、現地の早朝、月曜日の午前中、毎月1日前後に解放されます。
- 人気のある領事館（大都市のフランス・イタリア・スペインなど）では、新しい枠が数分でなくなることがあります。事前に登録・ログインした状態で確認してください。
- キャンセルにより日中も枠が空くことがあるため、「空きなし」と表示されていても毎日確認してください。

知っておくと便利
- A visa is permission to travel, not a guarantee — the immigration official at the port of entry sets the length of stay.
- Visitors are restricted to the activity or purpose for which the visa was issued.
