This document is a guidance notice from Rhodes University outlining the requirements for international temporary staff, including visiting lecturers, regarding temporary residence permits for employment in South Africa. It explains that those appointed for six months or more must apply for a work-permitting temporary residence permit before entry, while those already in the country must apply for a change of status. For shorter appointments, a separate short-term employment permit is required. All applications must be made at a South African diplomatic mission before arrival, except for existing residents who apply to the Department of Home Affairs.
