You can actually renew anytime, I did mine with 8 months validity.

You renew at the Nigerian consulate at Johannesburg, but first make payment at OIS service at Rosebank, then they give you a date for capturing. It's a long and tedious process, so if you have someone to help do it in Nigeria, it's better.

Processing time depends on the availability of booklet. Though, there are agents here who helps to fast track things with extra payment.

Hi, is there anyone who needs Rands, and would give me naira in exchange (NB: if you need to make payments in SA, or you have a South African bank account).

KazikageSama:


Must you submit today? If not, please don't sign it.

Legalize the document in Nigeria (if the marriage was done in Nig.), it should not take more than 3day or so to complete.

But if you feel compelled to sign today, then yes you may.

All da best

funshobabs:
I don't like the faces of those guys when they tell you to sign that form oh. It looks as if visas will be rejected if you do. Just go back home and do what's necessary.

Mercydecy:
my host said he only included the certificate to buttress the fact that I’m coming for his wedding anniversary.
And he is not in Nigeria, so there’s no how we can certify it. Also he said it’s not in the checklist so it’s not compulsory

KazikageSama:


If it's just to buttress the application, then the more reason you should not sign the form.

But hold on, is VFS saying that a document certified in SA is not tenderable to the SA high commission anywhere in the world? Cos that's ironic and laughable to say the least.

Mercydecy:
no, they said since the wedding was done in Nigeria, the certification should be done in Nigeria

Mercydecy:
I didn’t bother submitting, please how do I go about certification of marriage certificate?
Since the high court is on strike, can we use lawyer’s notary stamp?

KazikageSama:


Please confirm the exact requirement? Were you to notarize the document or legalize it? You need to be exact please.

If it is notarization, you can do it in high court of with a lawyer. If it is legalization, Abuja straight....

Mercydecy:

Ah! They just said the certification is supposed to be from Nigeria and not south africa

KazikageSama:


When I submitted mine, it was legalization (of my own marriage certificate) that was requested but your case and application is different. I want to believe that notarization will serve the purpose.
