The VIP Lane for Corporate Immigration

Achieving TES status fundamentally changes how your business interacts with the Department of Home Affairs, granting you access to the new Digital TES Platform.

Expedited Processing

TES-approved companies bypass foreign missions. All applications are routed via the new Digital Platform to a dedicated DHA desk.

  • Work Visas: Guaranteed 4-week turnaround.
  • Permanent Residence: Tracked to 8 months.

Reduced Red Tape

Say goodbye to repetitive administrative hurdles. TES employers benefit from massive documentary waivers that slow down normal applicants.

  • Critical Skills: Upfront SAQA verification waived.
  • General Work: Exempt from the Points-Based System.

Business Continuity

With predictable, reliable visa outcomes and streamlined extensions, your HR and Operations departments can confidently forecast project timelines and global talent mobility without the fear of sudden DHA rejections.

Does Your Company Qualify?

The DHA evaluates applications based on a rigid points system. To secure Trusted Employer status, your enterprise must achieve a minimum of 80 points across several compliance pillars.

30pt

Capital Investment

Proof of substantial historical financial investment into the Republic, verified by SAICA or DTIC pledges.

25pt

Local Job Creation

A strong ratio of South African citizens employed versus foreign nationals, demonstrating local upliftment via DEL EEA2 Reports.

20pt

Skills Transfer Program

A documented Graduate Development Programme proving how foreign expertise is transferred to local South African employees.

10pt

B-BBEE Compliance

Valid Equity Equivalence or B-BBEE certificate demonstrating compliance with transformation objectives.

The Compliance Audit

Compiling a TES application is a massive undertaking. It requires cross-departmental coordination (HR, Finance, Legal) to gather SARS clearances, UIF/COIDA registrations, and CIPC documents before the September 4th deadline.
