A planned Beitbridge Port of Entry operational visit will bring together SAPS, SANDF, SARS and traffic authorities to strengthen enforcement against illegal cross-border movement and improve compliance measures.
The Border Management Authority (BMA) says the interception of minibus taxis and buses transporting undocumented foreign nationals has become a major concern within inland operations.
According to the BMA, this has necessitated the convening of various stakeholders to strengthen interventions aimed at addressing illegal movements and ensuring compliance with South African laws.
This comes as the Commissioner of the BMA, Dr Michael Masiapato, is set to conduct an operational visit to the Beitbridge Port of Entry in Musina on Thursday, 28 May 2026, to monitor illegal movement and cross-border enforcement operations.
BMA spokesperson Mmemme Mogotsi said the visit will include a Port Management Committee meeting involving key stakeholders such as the South African Police Service (SAPS), the South African National Defence Force (SANDF), the South African Revenue Service (SARS) and traffic authorities.
