Of course, expat living in South Africa is not just about shipping your belongings and filing in some bureaucratic papers. Regular socializing with fellow Canadian is an essential part of expat life and becoming accustomed to the South African way of life and mentality. InterNations helps you connect and meet up with other Canadians in South Africa, residing in Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg and many other places throughout the country. Just take a look at our group of Canadians in Pretoria or Canadians in Johannesburg.

If you ever wish to have a chat in your Canadian native language, discover where to shop for Canadian food or discuss the Canucks' latest match, become a member of the South African InterNations Community:

  • Look up our top quality network to get to know open-minded expats from Canada or English or French-speaking expatriates in South Africa.
  • Obtain and share insider tips in our South Africa Expat Forums – e.g. how to hire a English or French-speaking babysitter for your children or where to buy maple syrup and cranapple relish in Cape Town.
  • Search the InterNations Expat Guide for South Africa to get information on the local Canada Club or the nearest Canadian consulate.

From the Highveld's Gauteng City Region to the Garden Route, a scenic stretch along the south-east coast, we’ll help you connect with supportive and friendly Canadian expats in South Africa.
