Corrections and additions[edit]

I think there's an error on the map (2 October 2023) - it shows Visa-free for Brunei, but afaik South African Passport holders need a visa for Brunei - classified as Category B on their official website, https://www.mfa.gov.bn/Pages/Category-b.aspx which indicates "Foreign nationals of countries in this category will require a visa to enter Brunei Darussalam, which can be applied through the nearest Brunei Darussalam's Missions Abroad." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ronald911 (talk • contribs) 04:03, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

South Sudan can get a visa at the airport in Juba or preferrably get it from the embassy in Pretoria. &Brew 10:34, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

Tunisia requires a Visa application at the airport, which is issued for a fee. At least, this was my experience in 2014 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.206.208.201 (talk) 11:28, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The maximum stay in Colombia without a visa is 90 days not 180 days ^[1]. If you look at the old cited source ^[2], it is unclear, but it states "Extension of stay possible for a total stay of 180 days per calendar year, for visitors who do not require a visa to enter Colombia". 20:44, 31 May 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nvernooy (talk • contribs)

Changed the visa status of New Zealand, now that they cut us off. 21 Nov 2016 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ronald911 (talk • contribs) 16:20, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Visa waiver for New Zealand if UK right of abode endorsed in South African passport is NOT correct[edit]

Current immigration instructions (https://www.immigration.govt.nz/opsmanual/#46511.htm) for New Zealand state that the visa waiver for non-British citizens with right of abode for the United Kingdom is only applicable for "other British passport holders" (e.g. British Overseas Citizen, British subject, etc.). This visa waiver therefore does not apply to someone who has right of abode for the United Kingdom endorsed in a South African passport (indeed, I remember reading a news article where a South African passport holder with right of abode to the UK was denied entry to NZ due to not having a valid visa, but I cannot for the life of me find it again now!). This article incorrectly states as such, and I am therefore removing all mention of such from the article -- this information would only apply on the "Visa requirements for BOTC/BN(O)/BOC citizens" pages, not here. The only visa waiver for South African passport holders is if an Australian permanent resident visa or resident return visa is endorsed in, or electronically linked to, the South African passport, pursuant to the Trans-Tasman Travel Arrangement.
