Consulate General of South Africa

Feb 27th, 2023

I had an appointment and Mr.Gayle helped me with fingerprints and photos. Although this was the second time. I applied for my passport last year in April and almost after a year I got to know that my fingerprints need to be done again. Great stuff....so this was the second attempt.

I had an amazing experience at the South African General Consulate..we were not aware of many things and the guy that was there was so helpful and j really appreciate the help that he had given he was by the name of Gail but he was really helpful and I had everything done in a very short time and it was a great experience overall.

Been about 3 or 4 months since I began my passport application. I was not told all the required documents nor was I told home affairs sent my application back due to the missing document. Been 2 weeks and not able to get hold of anyone. Really makes me wish I was born else where cause it is beyond pathetic. I am an international student (19 years old). My student visa and passport expire in October 2023 and Im now lost. Please if you can change nationality then I cant stress enough you do

The phone number does not work, answering an e-mail took about 2 weeks from their part. Once here it feels they do not want you to visit or benefit from tourists. Rude consular services, unhelpful. The process for a tourist visa is very rigid and feels outdates at best.
