On the 03 October 2023, the Department of Home Affairs gazetted a new Critical Skills List for South Africa. The updated list includes new occupations such as Veterinarians and Veterinary-registered nurses.
The list is broken down into three requirement areas:
- The classification regarding the education subject matter.
- The relevant occupation/ Skills, and
- The requirements pertaining to such things as memberships, experience and qualifications.
Only applicants who meet all three criteria will be successful in their application for Critical Skills Work Visa.
Additionally, The Candidate Engineers can now apply for Critical Skills Visa provided that they meet all the requirements.
University lecturers no longer require professional body registration (SACE), Instead, they must provide a letter of support from the Dean, Head of Faculty or the School or University Registrar.
