Business Permit Application
I would like to know, what is needed to apply for a Business Per in SA Embassy in Zimbabwe if you are in possession of the ZSP work permit? Can you apply while you are in SA or you need to personally go? How much and how long does the process take?
Thank you

Sorry I applied on 19 April. My bad.

They are done with the entire April period. I was there at the embassy myself today, and I got my Critical Skills Visa. Don't listen to that lady on the phone. Go to the embassy and hear for yourself.

Bridget did you apply on 17 April because it was a Sunday? Just called the embassy and they told me they haven't finished April yet, confused now.

Visa Update
The critical skills visas have been processed till end of April. I applied mine on 17 April, it was issued on 17 August and I only got it today. So that is roughly speaking a turnaround time of 18 weeks.

I am not sure about the rest of the categories. Good luck!

Unfortunately it seems the most active people on this forum have got their visa, and no longer making contributions here ......to get that information you now have to call or go the embassy
