Info
About Cape Town
Visas
British Citizens must hold a passport valid for at least 6 months from date of entry, and hold valid return or onward journey tickets along with adequate funds for the duration of their stay. Always check before you go, but currently no visa is required for lengths of stay up to 3 months (90 days).
Timezone
GMT + 2
Language
The country's Constitution guarantees equal status to 11 official languages to cater for the country's diverse peoples and their cultures. However English is the most commonly spoken language.
Jabs
Always check with your GP or travel nurse in plenty of time before departure as the situation can change, but it is recommended that you will need up-to-date Hepatitis A and B. Typhoid vaccinations with Polio Boosters are recommended.
Electricity
South Africa runs on 220/230 volts electricity (a link to our British colonial past!). The plug sockets accept the old British style plug with three round pins. So if you are coming from a country that uses 2 pin plugs or the square shaped 3 pin plugs, you will need an adaptor to use appliances.
Currency
The unit of currency is the Rand, and is divided into 100 cents. Rands come in denominations of R10, R20, R50, R100 and R200 notes. The R20 note looks very similar to the R200 note, so be careful when handing over money! The rand is a shaky currency, and it's likely that you will get more rands for your unit currency when you leave than when you arrive. Since the exchange rate does fluctuate constantly, we suggest you consult our currency converter for the latest rates.
