About applying for corporate permit
If you are a South African based company and wants to employ a number of foreigners to conduct work for you, apply for corporate permit at the Department of Home Affairs.
A corporate permit is a temporary resident permit for South African companies who need to employ foreign personnel. It offers the possibility to employ large number of employees abroad.
The company needs to provide proof that the skills required for the job are not available from a South African applicant.
Once the corporate permit has been approved, the individual employees may obtain work permits in a fast–tracked and cost saving procedure.
