Permanent Residence
The permanent residence permit allows its holder maximum flexibility with regards to entry and exit as well as activities followed in South Africa. In some categories or instances, the permits are issued under certain terms and conditions. After 5 years at the latest, every permanent resident is free to choose his/her activity in South Africa.
The status of permanent resident does not affect the holder’s citizenship. The permanent resident can obtain a South African identity book endorsed as „non-citizen“, but not a South African passport.
Each foreigner is advised to carefully contemplate his/her taking up of permanent residence, as this may in some instances lead to the loss of certain tax advantages.
