InterNations aims to support you, as an expatriate, in getting to know the South Africa expat community and discovering the South African way of life in all its facets, from having the traditional bobotie to celebrating the Day of Reconciliation.

South Africa Expat Guide
Embark on South Africa Expats Life
From the Cape of Good Hope to the wilderness trails of Kruger National park, South Africa has much to offer to expatriates, tourists and travelers from all over the world. However, the sizable expat South Africa community is mainly attracted by its economic opportunities, e.g. in the mining sector, and the urban development in Cape Town and Johannesburg. Expat living in South Africa surely can face a challenge once in a while, but at the same time it is a wonderful intercultural experience you will never forget.
