24 Nov JLIA, VFS & DHA Holiday Closures 2023

As we eagerly anticipate the festive season, June Luna Immigration Attorneys is committed to ensuring our clients stay well-informed about holiday closures that might impact their immigration plans.

With the upcoming holiday season approaching, understanding the potential consequences of visa expiration during closure periods is crucial. Any visa due to expire during the expected closure period must be renewed before VFS closes its doors. Failure to do so may result in severe legal repercussions, including being declared undesirable upon departure and facing bans from re-entering South Africa.

Department of Home Affairs

The Department of Home Affairs will observe closures exclusively on public holidays during the holiday season. This means that, except for these specified days, DHA’s services will remain accessible to address your immigration requirements.
