About 140 Home Affairs offices around the country will be closed for five days from November 27 to December 2 during upgrades of a live capturing system for the new smart ID cards and passports.
ID and passport services won’t be available as offices will be installing the new upgrades for service improvement.
Home Affairs said people could still come in for other services like birth, death and marriage certificates.
Director General Mkuseli Apleni says the upgrades will vastly improve ease of use for clients.
“Enhancement favouring clients will include introducing a booking system on the e-channel for people to apply for documents online in the comfort of their homes or offices.”
