Letter of Non-Impediment (LONI) — Fast DHA Processing for South Africans (Local & Abroad)
A Letter of Non-Impediment (LONI) is an official document issued by the South African Department of Home Affairs (DHA) confirming that a South African citizen has no legal impediment to marriage under South African law. This letter is a mandatory requirement for marriage abroad, civil registration in a foreign country, spousal visa applications, and certain immigration or residency processes.
Road2Asia provides a fast, end-to-end LONI service, personally applying at Home Affairs on your behalf and securing your Letter of Non-Impediment within 7–14 days, at a fixed cost of R4,390.
What Is a Letter of Non-Impediment?
A Letter of Non-Impediment formally confirms that:
-
You are not currently married under South African records (or that any prior marriage has been legally dissolved); and
-
There is no legal barrier preventing you from entering into a marriage.
Foreign civil registries, embassies and marriage officers routinely require this document before permitting a marriage ceremony or registering a marriage involving a South African citizen. Without a valid LONI, marriages abroad can be delayed or refused.

Verification & release: Once issued, we verify the details on your LONI to ensure accuracy.
