Consulate-General of South Africa in Mumbai

Southafrican consulate Mumbai provides the best in service.
I saw lot of peoples complaining about late processing of visa. We must remember that southafrican officials at mumbai wont make any visa processing delay personally because they are not controlled by taking bribes like some of our Indian offices. Only the tourist visa/visit visa can be issued with out any delay if you meet the maximum financial status as a tourist to southafrica. Thats is the most important thing for a tourist visa, if your financial status like Bank fixed deposit, IT returns, Documents of own house or Land etc.These documents will proof that yor are not going for illegal stay or not seeking employment in southafrica. The other type of visa is the " immediate family visa" First or second of Kin visa, Childrens of Southafrican citizens and Permanent residents; if it meets the minimum documentation , the visa will be issued with in days. We canot argue for late processing of spouse visa, because there is no guarantee for Indian marriges some times, it is not a permanent contract and can be cancelled by a court at any time if requested by the couples, so it require some proper supporting documentation from our Indian authority including with the Marrige certificate.Those documents will verify by between the Department of homeaffairs in pretoria and Indian highcommission in Southafrica before finalising.So we canot argue with the staffs at Mumbai or Delhi consular department.They are here to help us not to disturb. If any one face delay for visa processing, must ask the officials the reason, then find the solution.VISA is a contract between two countries, we canot simply say it is too late .
