Response: The Angolan Exemption Permit, 2021 by Peter-John Pearson
In August 2021 the Department of Home Affairs invited Angolans with particular types of documentation to apply for the Angolan Exemption Permit. The Department estimates that about 5 000 Angolans should be eligible for this permit. The invitation has now been extended to those with the Angolan Special Permit issued in 2018, which is due to expire at the end of 2021. It is also open to those with the Angolan Cessation Permit who had not applied for the later replacement permit (ASP), and to Angolan refugees who were issued with section 24 or 22 permits before 31st August 2013. The application process began on 16th August 2021. Response The Angolan Exemption Permit, 2021 by Peter-John Pearson
