Attention! All services and assistance of UNHCR and its partners are free of charge!
This section helps refugees, asylum-seekers, and stateless persons find support and services in South Africa. UNHCR and partner organisations may provide information, counselling, referrals, and in some cases limited targeted assistance depending on needs and available resources. Many essential services are provided through South Africa’s national and provincial systems, such as public health facilities, schools, and other government or community services. Use the links below to understand what is available, where to go, and how to access support.
