URGENT NOTICE:

Attention to South African Citizens in Denmark,

The Embassy of the Republic of South Africa in Copenhagen wishes to inform you that due to a shortage of Department of Home Affairs Civic Services forms, required for birth registrations, all such applications have regrettably been placed on hold.

The Embassy is aware of the inconvenience and frustration this has caused, and we sincerely regret the disruption to our services.

Please be assured that we are working tirelessly and in continuous engagement with the Department of Home Affairs to resolve this matter as a priority. Follow-ups are being made to ensure the urgent dispatch of the required Civic Services forms.

In the interim, we encourage those with urgent birth registration needs to consider contacting neighbouring South African Missions, such as the Embassy in Sweden, Norway, Germany, Poland, United Kingdom, and Netherlands for possible assistance.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during this challenging period.

Updates will be shared through our official communication channels as soon as further information becomes available.

For enquiries, please contact the South African Embassy as follows:
