What travel documents do I need?

Asked a year ago
When traveling with South African Airlines, it is essential to have the necessary travel documents to ensure a smooth journey. For domestic flights within South Africa, passengers need to carry a valid form of identification, such as a passport, national ID card, or driver's license. However, it is highly recommended to travel with a passport as some destinations may require it. For international travel, a valid passport is a must, along with any necessary visas for the specific country you are visiting. It is crucial to check the entry requirements of your destination well in advance and ensure that your passport has a minimum validity of six months. Additionally, it is advisable to bring any supporting documentation, such as return tickets, hotel reservations, and proof of sufficient funds, to present if requested at immigration checkpoints.
