Self-funded repatriation from South Africa during the lockdown has been made available for Zimbabweans in that country.

The repatriation is by road from Johannesburg/Tshwane to Beitbridge during the lockdown.

Key things to note as communicated by the Zimbabwean Embassy in SA:

• You will pay for this yourself
• Intercity/Eagle are one of the transporters who have been engaged
• It is demand-driven and will run weekly on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. So if there is no demand, no ride.
• First date of departure is pencilled for 6 May depending on approval on the SA side where intercity travel is still prohibited.
• Pickup points in Johannesburg are Lenasia, Starbus and Park station while in Tshwane it is Bosman.
• Departure times in Johannesburg 10:00 and 15:00hrs
• Ticket cost is R600 per person and payments can be made on computickettravel online from 1 May
  Passenger manifests will be handed to the Embassy for compliance on both sides of the border.
• Bus capacity will be limited to 70%
• You need legitimate travel documents and if you dont have them, contact the consulate.
• Consultations are taking place for people who are not in Gauteng
  All travelers will be subjected to a mandatory 21-day quarantine at Beitbridge upon crossing the border.
  All the best kids.
