= Travel =

Probably the only viable option is to fly, but someone is bound to want a road trip.

= Entry requirements =

[[http://www.dha.gov.za/index.php/immigration-services/exempt-countries|No visa required for UK passport holders]] for stays of less than 90 days. It's probably wise to have at three months passport validity at the time of entry. 

[[https://debconf16.debconf.org/about/visiting-south-africa|Other requirements]]:

 * At least two blank passport pages
 * Sufficient day-to-day funds for the duration
 * Return or onward ticket
 * [[http://www.visasouthafrica.org/visa/yellow-fever-belt/|Yellow fever certificate if applicable]]

= Customs =

Import information: [[https://south-africa.visahq.com/customs/]]

Notably cheese is a significant problem. Pre-imported supplies are [[http://lists.debconf.org/lurker/message/20160506.225349.e2fcb8c6.en.html|available]] nearby and may even be trucked in by the conference organisers.
