DA pressure improves passport application services for South Africans abroad
8 June 2022
The Democratic Alliance (DA) welcomes the outsourcing of passport application services for South Africans in the UK.
South Africans in the UK can now lodge passport applications through VFS Global and will be able to hold interviews in London, Birmingham, Manchester or Edinburgh.
This follows years of sustained pressure by the DA through the DA Abroad, as well as the valuable support of SAPeople, and demonstrates that the DA gets things done for all South Africans - including those living abroad.
The lodging of passport applications is only the first step to relieve the ordeal of endless unanswered phone calls and correspondence simply to lodge a passport application.
