AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

World Cup Travel Drama: Bafana Bafana finally departed for Mexico on Monday after visa delays left some players and even assistant coach Helman Mkhalele stranded, with SAFA apologising and officials calling it “embarrassing” and demanding “heads must roll.” Border Tech for Travellers: SARS rolled out a new Traveller Declaration System from 1 June 2026, requiring online customs declarations for travellers and a Temporary Import Permit for foreign-registered vehicles at ports of entry. Xenophobia Travel Warning: Ghana advised citizens to avoid non-essential travel to South Africa amid renewed reports of xenophobic attacks, injuries, and business closures, while urging Ghanaians in SA to stay in touch with the High Commission. Local Transport Upgrade: Western Cape taxis are trialling cashless tap-and-go/prepaid card payments to cut cash hassles and speed up boarding. Winter Weather Alert: A cold front and cut-off low are set to bring heavy rain and possible snow to parts of the Eastern and Western Cape. Tourism Spotlight: BBC Lifestyle’s Hidden Gems South Africa highlights local “gem-fluencers” and lesser-known luxury escapes, including the Karoo.
