Citizenship Status Letter DIRCO Apostille Urgent Service
A Letter Confirming Citizenship Status is an official document issued by the South African Department of Home Affairs that verifies an individual’s citizenship status. This document is often required for immigration, dual citizenship applications, residency, and legal matters abroad.
When submitting your citizenship confirmation letter in another country, it must be apostilled by the Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO) to be legally recognised.
