The impression i had earlier was that u intend sponsoring her from SA but since she has her own business in Nigeria, it makes it a lot easier. In that case, she can provide her own documents instead and that will suffice. All the best.

yinksob002:
Since you are inviting her from SA, the requirements are:
1) Valid International passport
2) Duly completed visitors visa application form
3) Sponsors bank statement
4) Yellow fever vaccination card (Obtainable at the lagos airport)
5) Letter of Invitation
6) Proof of accomodation
7) Flight reservation
Other supporting documents from sponsor (i.e proof of employment or business in SA, residence status in SA e.t.c)

Note that item 8 will not be applicable if the sponsor is based in Nigeria.
All the best

Hello Gurus,

I would like to know what the requirements for visiting visa from VFS Ikeja Lagos to SA for my mother-in-law entails. I want her to come for omugwo(taking care of my new baby).

Your kind response will be appreciated.
