Travelling for the wedding? Each guest applies for their own SA visa — we’ll prepare your invitation letter and walk you through every step.
How it works
Open the RSVP, tick “visa support”, and fill in your passport & travel info. ~5 minutes.
A personalised invitation letter in your name, with accommodation and supporting details.
We reach you on phone/email to walk through what to bring and what to expect.
You submit your application at the SA visa centre — fully prepared.
These are the documents the South African High Commission typically asks for. Start gathering them now.
Valid for at least 6 months after your return date, with 2 blank pages.
The visa application form. We’ll send you the latest version.
Recent, plain white background, 35 × 45 mm.
We’ll prepare a personalised one in your name once you register — you submit it with your application.
Hotel booking or confirmation from the group stay we’re arranging.
Reservation is fine — no need to pay until visa is approved.
Last 3 months, stamped by the bank. Shows you can fund the trip.
Required for entry into South Africa from yellow-fever risk countries (including Uganda).
Don’t worry if you don’t have everything yet — register now and we’ll guide you through what to gather. Wait to hear from us before you apply.
We’re splitting the run to the VFS centre into three batches so we can support everyone properly. Pick the dates that work best for you — you’ll confirm your choice on the RSVP form.
Earliest slot — best if your passport, photos and supporting docs are already in hand.
A couple of weeks of buffer — gives you time to gather documents after registering.
Latest we can take in. After this we can’t guarantee your visa will be processed in time.
Not sure which batch suits you yet? Pick “Not sure yet” on the form — you can update it later from your edit link.
Ready to share your details?
Open the RSVP & tick the visa-support box.
No. Each traveller applies for their own visa at the SA visa centre. What we do is prepare your invitation letter, share a checklist, and brief you before you go — so you walk in ready. Please wait to hear from us before submitting your application.
We’ll reach out on the phone number and email you enter in the form above. That’s how we’ll send your invitation letter and any updates, so please double-check both before submitting.
Total is roughly UGX 500,000 per person: a USD 36 visa fee paid to the South African embassy, plus a UGX 342,000 service fee paid to VFS Global at the application centre.
Online and in-person through VFS Global, the official application partner: visa.vfsglobal.com/uga/en/zaf/apply-visa. You complete the online form, book a biometrics appointment, and bring your documents on the day.
No. A reservation (held ticket) is enough for the visa application. Only pay after your visa is approved.
Usually 4 – 8 weeks. We strongly recommend submitting by end of June 2026 to be safe.
It happens occasionally. We’ll help you review the reasons and re-apply if there’s time. Registering early gives us the most room to help.
Absolutely. Wedding activities run 9 – 13 September 2026, but you’re welcome to arrive earlier or stay longer. Put your preferred dates on the RSVP form and we’ll reflect them in your personal invitation letter.
We can’t go in with you, but once we know who’s applying we’ll set up a WhatsApp support group where we walk through each step together. No one applies alone.
