Commenting on the relocation of the Centre, HE Nosicelo D MBELE, Consul General, Consulate-General of the Republic of South Africa said, “On behalf of the Government of the Republic of South Africa, the Consulate-General takes pride in the presence of the Visa Application Centre in Lubumbashi. The motive for opening this centre about 10 years ago, was to facilitate a smooth visa application process for our Congolese brothers and sisters. I am extremely happy today that VFS Global has relocated to this beautiful location, which is easily accessible. I truly appreciate the efforts of the VFS Global management who heard the call to relocate the centre.”
