The country’s economy has been struggling, limiting job growth in many industries. This is particularly true for young graduates and entry-level workers, who may find it difficult to secure employment in their chosen field. Compounding the issue is the high competition for available jobs.

You can apply for different types of South African work visas including a general work visa, critical skills visa, intra-company transfer visa, and a business visa (if you want to start your own business in South Africa).
Nationwide, nearly three times as many foreigners were killed as a result of xenophobic violence in 2021 than the previous year, according to the African Centre of Migration and Society. Poverty is one of the main drivers of such conflict, with South Africans frequently accusing immigrants of taking their jobs.
