South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has announced that Nigerian tourists can now apply for a visa to South Africa without submitting their passports.
This new development was revealed during the opening of the 11th session of the Nigeria-South Africa Bi-National Commission (BNC) in Cape Town, which was attended by President Bola Tinubu.
Ramaphosa stated that South Africa has simplified its visa processes to ease travel for Nigerian businesspeople and tourists, including offering five-year multiple-entry visas for qualifying Nigerian businesspeople.
He emphasized South Africa’s commitment to fostering a better business environment by removing constraints on investments and addressing challenges faced by companies in both countries.
