If you’re married to a South African citizen or permanent resident and want to live in South Africa, the Spousal Visa might be your perfect route. This visa allows foreign spouses to legally reside in the country, and with the right endorsements, even work, study, or run a business.
Who Qualifies?
To apply for a Spousal Visa, you must:
- Be legally married to a South African citizen or permanent resident
- Provide proof that the relationship is legitimate and ongoing
- Intend to live together permanently in South Africa
How Long Is It Valid?
The Spousal Visa is typically issued for 2–3 years and can be renewed. After five years of marriage and living together in South Africa, you may also apply for permanent residency.
