Surinamese Embassy in South Africa

South African citizens need a visa for Suriname, which they can apply for online as an e-Visa for stays of up to 90 days. The application is made online on the official portal of Suriname, not at the Surinamese embassy.

South Africa has no mission in Suriname on record; South African citizens there would be served by an embassy accredited from another country.
