South Africa’s Ministry of Home Affairs announced that Zimbabwean nationals have been granted an automatic validity period through Nov. 28, 2025, on their exemption permits.
Key Points:
Background: The ZEP program began when the South African government granted “special dispensation” for Zimbabweans who were in the country illegally, many of whom had fled violence and instability. The South African government replaced special dispensation for Zimbabweans with special permits in 2014 and again in 2017 with the introduction of ZEPs. The exemption affects approximately 178,000 Zimbabwean nationals.
