South Africas Department of Home Affairs introduces a nomad visa for remote workers, with a 1 million rand income requirement. The move aims to assist major foreign-owned employers facing challenges due to delays in work permit processing and a shortage of skilled workers. Updates include a points-based system for general work visas and a reduction in police clearance certificate period.

The May 20 gazetting of the changes, which had last month been withdrawn after the department failed to observe a mandatory period for public comment, means that the changes are now law.
