In a statement, Home Affairs Minister Dr. Aaron Motsoaledi, said the temporary extension is to deal with the high demand for Smart ID Cards and passport services at its offices.

‘’This extension applies to the 198 modernised Live Capture offices which can process Smart ID Cards and passports. The Department usually receives a higher volume of applications during school holidays. To meet demand during this period, we have extended operating hours,” said Motsoaledi.

Operating hours are between 08:00 to 17:30.
