Medical Reports Waived for Residency | Johannesburg News
Description
South Africa just dropped a major immigration update: medical reports are now waived for ALL permanent residency and temporary visa applications — except for those applying from overseas, who still need them. This move slashes red tape, speeds up processing, and eliminates rejections over minor paperwork hiccups. While the medical check was originally meant to prevent disease spread, South Africa’s existing immigration laws already handle serious health risks. The waiver doesn’t mean less scrutiny — just less bureaucracy. Still, don’t skip other critical docs like passports, funds, and police clearances. Streamlined doesn’t mean simplified — just smoother.
