Travel History
Where you've been

Financial Evidence
How the trip is funded
DHA does not publish a daily threshold but expects 3–6 months of bank statements showing the applicant can support themselves throughout the trip. A working benchmark is R3,000 per day (≈ ₦230,040/day) or proof of fully pre-paid accommodation. Both your own funds and any sponsor funds must be evidenced.
Source of Funds for the Trip *
Required
Sponsor Details (if applicable)
If sponsored, the sponsor's bank statements and a formal sponsorship declaration will be required at document-collection stage.
Tip: If your bank balance is borderline, do not deposit a large lump sum just before applying. Officers look at the trend across 6 months — sudden inflows raise concerns. A modest but steady balance is more convincing than a recently inflated one.
