What are the best visa run options for a South African passport holder with a Non-B visa expiring in January?

And as nice this report is, what has this to do with an application of the Non Immigrant B visa for South African passport holders?

@Tod ********

, my daughter followed your advice and applied online to get her Non B in Singapore last week. They informed her that she can bring in her original forms and passport between the 14th and 16th Jan .She handed the forms in on Monday morning and collected the new Non B Tuesday afternoon

Thank you for all the good advice. You make it easy for all us with your knowledge.

A South African colleague went to KL to do her Non B a few days earlier and was told to come back in 45 days. She applied online with Singapore and she managed to get the Non B with my daughter yesterday. So your advice in KL for South Africans is also spot on.

Singapore basically would reply in pretty good time as first response. Still earlier is better. (and 1 hour advance)

My friend got followup messages (because of lack of documents) even in the evening or Saturday. Though I wouldn't reply on it since it's new year's holiday season.

Anyway seems like you have enough time.

BTW, my friend got the notification of the date for actual application (in person) in a couple of days from the first applying online.

You could have probably applied online today IF you had all the documentation from your employer to scan and submit to the singapore consulate.

Go here, make a user name and password and submit your documents. They'll review them once they re-open after the new year and email you back

You're out nothing by trying the online Singapore program. You scan all the documents and send them to them. If it's approved or not, they email you.

Good Luck

Malaysia takes 4 weeks to proccess visas for South African passport holders. I was there 2 weeks ago. Rather go to Laos of Vietnam

There were reports that South africans need to be legal residence in Malaysia to apply.

Also reports that South African can apply in Kota Bharu.

Tod and others may share info re SoAfr at KL

@Alyssa *********

@Alyssa *********

Especially since:

KL takes 4 weeks according their website.
