The system is set to come to an end at the end of June.
But several organisations are challenging the termination in court.

Motsoaledi says the intention is not to kick people out of the country but to standardise visa processes.
"The stories that we are chasing Zimbabweans away is what I read from the media and hear from other people.
"We're not chasing them, we are saying, all we are saying is this thing must come to an end," he said.
