THE Zimbabwean Consulate in Cape Town, South Africa, has moved to a permanent location in a move aimed at improving service delivery for Zimbabwean nationals based in the Eastern Cape, Western Cape and Northern Cape provinces.
In a public notice, the Consulate said it is relocating to a more convenient address at number 55 Kuyper Street, Zonnebloem, Cape Town, with effect from January 30.
The Consulate, which was previously housed at 122 Longmarket Street in Cape Town, said normal services will resume from February 2.
Zimbabwe has two consulate offices in South Africa, based in Johannesburg and Cape Town, while the main embassy is located in Pretoria.
Through the two consulates, the embassy periodically carries out outreach programmes to offer consular services to Zimbabweans in South Africa, Lesotho and eSwatini.
The Consulate offers various services, including visa and passport processing, document legalisation, and birth and marriage registrations.
“The Consulate of the Republic of Zimbabwe in Cape Town wishes to inform members of the public and Zimbabwean nationals in the Western Cape, Eastern Cape and Northern Cape provinces that it is moving back to its offices at number 55 Kuyper Street, Zonnebloem, Cape Town on 30 January 2026,” said the Consulate in the notice.
“Normal business will resume on 2 February 2026 from Monday to Friday. Clients are encouraged to bring the required sets of photocopies for the services that are needed as indicated on the consulate website, www.zimcounsulatecpt.co.zw (requirements section), to avoid delays.”
