Zimbabwe government agrees with SA cabinet decision not renew temporary work permits given to Zimbabweans.

This comes after South African government indicated it will not be renewing the Zimbabwe Exemption Permits (ZEP) at the end of this year.

Zimbabwe government said it is trying to minimise the damages that can befall its citizens following SA’s decision to scrap off ZEPs

The permits which were given to Zimbabweans at the height of the political and economic crisis between 2008 and 2009 were renewed two times but the Zimbabwean government is pushing for the third time renewal.
