### One-Stop Solution

The One-Stop Border Post Bill has been drawn up for several months and was recently
put before the National Assembly for consideration.

The Bill will put an end to checks by both the departing and arrival country at 
most borders, allowing those passing to only be processed once in a “common control
zone”.

The minister said this will help ease high volumes of traffic at the border that
has become “a major obstacle” to national and regional economic development.

“This is a move away from a traditional two-stop border post concept in which exit
procedures are carried out on one side of the border and entry procedures are carried
out on the other side for persons, vehicles and goods.

“Except for the Lebombo port of entry [bordering Mozambique], all the land ports
of entry in South Africa are based on a two-stop border post model,” the bill explains.
