The high court in Pretoria, South Africa- is hearing an application that sets to get the decision to terminate the Zimbabwe exemption permit (ZEP) set aside.

The Zimbabwe exemption permit (ZEP) system was introduced more than a decade ago to regularise the status of Zimbabweans illegally in SA due to political and economic hardships at home.

The department of home affairs last year announced the system would be terminated in June 2023 and ZEP holders would have to apply for "regular" SA visas.
