(d) (i) (ii) (iii)

The Department has not conducted any research with reference to digital nomad visas. However, the President in his State of the Nation Address on 14 February 2022 announced that he had appointed former Department of Home Affairs Director-General, Mr Mavuso Msimang to review the Visa Regime.

I therefore request the Honourable De Freitas to await outcomes of the report.
