Delay in Tourist Visa
Looks like the processing for even tourist visas are pathetically slow.They have the below facebook page.From the comments there too no one seems to be getting the visa on time.
I have applied on 7th April and till now no updates on the visa.

Flying on 30th early morning
I had applied for visa just for 5 days for world economic forum and I was supposed to fly on 30th early morning but I still haven't got visa and now. I think there's no chance I would receive my passport now as it's Saturday and I'm missing world economic forum
Thank you.

Outstanding visas
Good day,

We are urgently awaiting the arrival of 3 technicians from India. They have made their visa applications 3 weeks ago. However, they have still not been issued with their visas and therefor have been able to travel to South Africa .

The travellers reference numbers are :
1. DHMU/120417/0044/01
2. DHMU/120417/0044/02
3. DHMU/130417/0048/01

We are a pharmaceutical toll manufacturer and have purchased manufacturing equipment from India. The equipment arrived at our factory two weeks ago. Our factory is however currently at a standstill as we are awaiting the arrival of the technicians for the installation of said equipment.

Unfortunately the delays on the installation of the equipment is severely impacting on our supply of critical medicines to government.

Your urgent assistance in this matter will be highly appreciated.
