Who we are, and how we work

This site helps you with one thing. More time in South Africa. It covers one visa only. The visitor’s visa, section 11(1).

It is a paid service. You pay once. Here is what you get. We work out your dates from the law. We list the papers you need. We make your letters, ready to sign. You get one page to print.

Then you go yourself. We do not go for you. Home Affairs decides, not us.

How we check our facts

We read the law ourselves. We read the visa office’s site too. Every fact on this site has a source. Every page shows the date we read it.

Sometimes the official texts do not agree. One text says 60 days. Another says 30. We show you both texts, word for word. We never pick one for you. We never guess. We never invent a number. If we do not know, we say so.

You can check every fact yourself. We give you the links to the official texts.

Who is behind this site

My name is Sebastien. I live in Cape Town. I run this site alone. My family needed more time here. I did the applications myself. It was hard to know the rules. The law says one thing. The visa office’s site says another. I built the tool I wished we had then. Now it is this site.

The company behind this site is S0ltea (Pty) Ltd. It is a South African company. Registration number: 2024/051691/07. More company details are on our terms page.

Some things we never do

• We do not apply for you.
• We do not book your VFS day.
• We do not give legal advice.
• We do not promise a yes.
• We never see your papers. They stay with you, on your phone.

Refund guaranteed

We are not lawyers. We do not give legal advice. We explain a public process. The rules come from the official texts. Your case is yours. Home Affairs decides.
