Home Affairs Minister Malusi Gigaba is calling for Basotho nationals living in SA to regularise their stay by 30 September.

Undocumented Lesotho citizens living in South Africa have been urged to take advantage of the remaining days to regularise their stay in South Africa before the deadline.

Home Affairs Minister Malusi Gigaba says residents have until the end of September to submit applications.

The Lesotho permit initiative is a special dispensation for Lesotho nationals who work‚ study or do business in South Africa and arrived in the country before 30 September 2015.

The permit initiative was launched in February 2016 and will expire in December 2019.

Gigaba says they have simplified the application process.
