The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Competition launched the Business Visa Recommendation System (VRS) to streamline the process of business visa recommendation applications, making it more efficient and user-friendly.
Key Points:
VRS is the online platform for business visa recommended applications. Replace the email application process to improve efficiency and accessibility. Applicants can submit applications, upload documents, and track progress in real time. Automated notifications will keep applicants up to date with their application status.
Additional Information: VRS is in line with South Africa's e-government initiative to improve access to government services. The system aims to reduce red tape and simplify the ease of business in South Africa.
