Home Affairs extends Saturday operating hours for ID services and addresses challenges until 25 May.

Home Affairs extends operating hours to Saturdays, from 6 April to 25 May, to facilitate ID collection services, new applications, and issuance of Temporary Identity Certificates. Offices will also address challenges related to duplicates, amendments, rectifications, and "dead-alive" cases. Mobile offices plan to return to remote areas to deliver IDs in locations where applications were submitted.
