General Work Visa

A General Work Visa may be issued to any foreign national who intends to take up employment in South Africa on the basis of a firm offer of employment. The amendment of the Immigration Act in 2014, saw the introduction of a Department of Labour Certificate process for those who wish to apply for a General Work Visa and this includes applications for renewals.

Corporate Visa

A Corporate Visa is a temporary work authorisation granted not to a foreign employee, but to a corporate entity (e.g. a mine) to employ a pre-determined number of skilled/semi-skilled/unskilled workers. This visa enables a corporate applicant to employ a large number of foreign nationals for a specific period.

I was assisted by multiple people at this organisation and all of them knew the process well. They were more than happy to help on queries, exceptions, follow ups etc. I was seeking work permit from SA and their documentation was splendid (even VFS said its fool proof). Highly recommended set of professionals.

My agent and guardian angel was Mpho Ndimande, I would like to say I am exceptionally pleased with her services that she provided me during the tough and stressful times that one would experience dealing with DHA, she is very well informed and was always willing to assist with any query I had at any given time. I must commend her effort in going that extra mile to ensure that her clients have peace of mind.

Her team went above and beyond their calling to accommodate me and for that, I am very grateful. I will highly recommend Xpatweb to anyone who wishes to have a peaceful sleep at night, knowing that you will be in good hands.

They respond quickly and efficiently and not only helping me obtaining the visa I needed but also in their services to help obtain all the supporting documents that are required for the process.
