Story 2
South Africa officially launched its Electronic Travel Authorisation system at OR Tambo International Airport on 12 August, following earlier pilot testing.
The digital platform allows eligible travellers to apply online and uses automated checks to verify documents and identify potential fraud before they arrive.
The system is expected to expand to more countries and visa categories, making travel more convenient and potentially bringing more tourists to South Africa to support local businesses and jobs.
Home Affairs Minister Dr Leon Schreiber says the new technology is set to improve immigration and border management.
