WARNING: New restrictions on entering the United States!

Indice

The United Kingdom on Thursday showed concern about a newly identified coronavirus variant in South Africa that could make vaccines less effective, and imposed travel restrictions to six African countries.

Javid said more data were needed, but the travel restrictions were necessary as a precaution, as scientists said laboratory studies were needed to assess the likelihood of mutations resulting in greatly reduced vaccine efficacy.

Officials have warned the government of the need to act quickly and preemptively if concerns about the impact of the variant are confirmed, although it could take weeks to generate all the necessary information about its characteristics.

If you are a citizen of another country and want to travel to South Africa, then you need a visa.  The “visitor” visa is for international travelers permanently residing outside South Africa. It is also for those who wish to visit the country on a more temporary basis for tourism or business purposes.  But it does not last forever.  Once you get it, the visa is valid for no more than 90 days.

So, now you are in the country.  While you are here, the visa is considered a visitor’s permit.  The period of validity of the permit is counted from the date you arrived and will be stated under the heading “conditions” on the visa label.

It is important to make sure you apply for the correct visa or permit.  Otherwise, entry into the country may be refused if the purpose of the visit is not stated correctly.

Depending on where you are from, visa requirements are different from country to country and are subject to change.  Each application is treated as an individual case, so you should inquire at the nearest South African consulate or mission abroad or any Department of Home Affairs office to see if you are even supposed to apply for a visa.

New restrictions in the united kingdom to curb the

The United Kingdom government announced Tuesday that it will remove all countries from its red list of travel destinations as of next morning, considering that it has lost effectiveness in slowing the spread of the omicron variant of the coronavirus.

Community transmission of the new variant in the UK and the rest of the world makes the red list “less effective in slowing the incursion of omicron from abroad,” the minister said.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) estimates that some 200,000 people were infected with the Omicron variant in the UK on Monday, although the official number of confirmed test-confirmed cases was 54,661 yesterday.

Parliament is expected to approve these measures this afternoon with the backing of the Conservative majority and the Labour opposition, although dozens of Tory MPs have announced that they will rebel against their own government and vote against the plan.

As regards South Africa and Brazil, the fourth extension of the measure adopted on February 2 has been agreed, so that the limitation will be in force until April 13.
