I applied for a copy of my daughters South African birth cert through the embassy in Dublin, paid the fee in 2010. I still have not received it. When O tried to phone embassy in Dublin, there is never any answer.

Waiting 18 months for a birth certificate!
I applied for my apostilled birth certificate in Nov 2014 so that my partner and I may be married in Ireland. I received a birth certificate a year later that belonged to someone else! I am still waiting and each time I call the answer is they are an intermediate service and not home affairs and therefore have no control. The personnel tell me they have very little contact with the SA home affairs and that they do not respond to their communication. They provided a telephone number for home affairs in SA, which one gets no answer to. So my hands are tied....and I wait! Shocking!

Seriously?
READ THE HEADLINES! This is not an official South African Embassy Page. They literally CANNOT communicate to you via this web page. The Foreign Affairs office won't let them!

Use the phone numbers or the e-mail addresses above. These are the *only* ways to get your answers or get your problems resolved.

This page is NOT official. It even says it above these comments.

I have lost my SA drivers licence and would like to enquire if I can have it re-issued here as I will not be returning to SA in the near future. Please can someone at the embassy reply because all the comments posted on this web site don't do the embassy justice or better still get out of Ireland because you are not helping the people much with their enquiries. Your response will be much appreciated so prove me wrong. Thanks
