RX Africa – Removal of PCR test to enter South Africa positions destination South Africa as tourist-friendly

Attribute to Megan Oberholzer, Portfolio Director: Travel, Tourism & Creative Industries RX Africa

“In just under a month’s time, thousands of travel industry stakeholders will visit the City of Cape Town to attend Africa Travel Week to reignite travel across the continent. South Africa’s decision to remove the mandatory requirement for a negative PCR test to enter South Africa bodes well not only for the event which will be hosted live for the first time in two years, but also to position destination South Africa as tourist friendly and ready to welcome visitors. We are delighted to be welcoming our tourism industry partners across the globe to the host City of Cape Town for this hallmark trade event which will highlight the extent to which South Africa and indeed the continent are travel ready.”
