Reviews of Black Pen Immigration Consulting Firm
While still in Europe, I read a highly complimentary item about Black Pen and the quality of their service in assisting would-be immigrants to South Africa. It is no exaggeration to say Black Pen as a whole is exceptional.
My wife was already a Permanent Resident and following my initial visits to the country, we decided South Africa was where we wished to retire. When first contacting Black Pen about obtaining a residence visa for South Africa, the process was explained in detail and involved first applying for a Spousal Visa. The process was described exactly as it transpired.
Before I arrived in South Africa, I was guided by Black Pen with preparation of all the necessary documentation, which was required to be prepared for submission by me. Using the documents I had been instructed to obtain, the documentation package and application letter was prepared by Black Pen, to confirm it was exactly as it should be and an appointment made with VFS Global for its submission. Due to DHA delays, it was a year before an outcome was provided, but it was ultimately successful. All the advice and guidance provided by Black Pen was accurate.
After a further year, I provided some updated documentation to Black Pen for my Permanent Residence Permit application. Black Pen again prepared everything and prepared it for my submission to the local office of VFS Global. After some processing delays by DHA, that application was also successful.
The final step us for me to visit the local office of the DHA to obtain my ID Document. The detailed procedure was provided by Black Pen.
For anyone wishing to apply for a South African residence visa/permit, I cannot recommend highly enough the service provided by Black Pen. My thanks in particular to Kamil, Athina and Nora, all of who have been brilliant.
Kamil at Black Pen was a great guide through the residency application process. He was exceptionally responsive and particularly knowledgeable about applications originating from Europe. Something I did not find in other consultants. I'd recommend his company for their professionalism and knowledge of the process.
I had the pleasure to work with Kamil for my first temporary residence visa and it ended up with a positive outcome.
He was available and was answering my different requests.
I'm very happy with the services of Black Pen and Kamil because navigating the South African visa applications is not an easy journey at all. But with their help it went smoothly!
Thank you
I want to say thank you to the Black Pen Team, especially Kamil, in relation to my temporary Visa renewal application. I am extremely satisfied with the service and assistance I received. Kamil was absolutely professional and responded promptly to all my questions. I would recommend Black Pen to anyone as I know the process will be handled correctly.
Fantastic company! Very helpful, always open and always fast responding.
Kamil and the rest of the Back Pen team did a great job assisting me with my permanent residency application. Today I am writing my first review as permanent resident of South Africa.
Really excellent service from Kristina. She walked us through the necessary steps from start to finish, and was always immediately responsive to any questions we had.
She prepared an extensive, detailed visa application for me, which was approved with no difficulty. Kristina's knowledge in fact seems to outweigh that of some embassy staff.
Really delighted with the service from Black Pen.
I would highly recommend Black Pen Immigration. My Critical Skills Visa application was so carefully and expertly prepared, my visa was approved well ahead of the initially advised timeframe. My application and pending move to South Africa was time sensitive and Nora was able to deliver on the tight timeframe with great efficiency.
I would most certainly recommend Nora and Black Pen without reservation. I felt in safe hands and supported throughout the process and I am hugely thankful for her commitment and dedication in obtaining a favourable outcome. It was truly a pleasure working with her and the team.
As a South African citizen with Polish wife I have worked, on 2 separate occasions, with David Frick from Black Pen Immigration in Cape Town to obtain visas for my wife. One of which was Permanent Residency. David was very professional, quick to react on any queries and answered all of our questions with patience. He made sure we had first class service throughout the whole process. Also, Athina was very friendly and supportive while communicating via calls and emails. What a team! We highly recommend Black Pen Immigration services to anyone relocating to South Africa or simply for any visa related queries. Thank you David and the team for your hard work and support. Take care!
I have used Black Pen Immigration twice in the last couple of years to assist me with different visa applications.
In both instances, I found Black Pen's help and expertise invaluable and Nora and her team handled my business in a friendly and professional manner. I was always kept informed during each stage of the process which is a welcome change to many other companies.
I will have no hesitation in reaching out to Black Pen Immigration in the future when the need arises.
Applied in 2019 for Permanent Residence Permit with Black Pen. Took longer than usual due to Covid19. Have had friendly and patient consulting from Black Pen during 3 years. Quick response at all times from all staff members. Happy to have them for support. Could collect my PRP Certificate a few days ago.

Without Black Pen's services, it would have been completely impossible for me to get a SA working permit. Nora has been highly professional, helpful, quick and very responsive to emails/questions at any time, always trying to find a solution for whatever problem that might arise. She has been supporting me throughout the process and I am very very thankful for her personal commitment!
Absolute recommendation!
I've used Black Pen's service multiple times and I would definitely recommend them. A big thank you to Kamil who was extremely helpful and responsive, and made what is a frustrating process as simple as it could be.
Would 100% recommend for anyone requiring visa services.
Black Pen is a very professional immigration company. We as a family of 5 did not have an easy case and we worked over a year with them (due to the pandemic) and it turned out so well. Special thanks to Kamil, who was always proactive, quick and easy to communicate and a real expert in his business. Thanks again!
I Would like to thank you Kristina and entire Black Pen team for their good work and great support for me. They are very professional , smooth communication. I can highly recommend Black Pen . Excellent immigration assistance.

Thanks again to Black Pen Immigration for preparing the documents for my Critical Skills Visa so well. The consultant at the embassy in Munich promised a fast processing as he was checking my application. And voilà, I got my Passport with the visa sticker back after only 9 working days. :)
I've spoken to three immigration consulting firms in Cape Town, used two of them, and I would strongly recommend Black Pen. As well as being very familiar with the rules, paperwork etc., they aren't afraid to actually give you an opinion on how your case looks and what you should do. They helped me successfully get a visa in a category which is not the most popular and often gets rejected.
I can't speak more highly of my experience with Kristina from Black Pen. My overstay appeal wasted 6 months of my time until I was directed to Black Pen and just three weeks later... voila... upliftment letter. Definitely my first stop in the future for any of my legals!
Kamil was efficient, precise and managed my expectations beautifully. He came to my rescue on a Sunday to help with an appeal that had a super short deadline, and we received a positive answer a few weeks later. His attention to detail and knowledge were incredible.
Excellent guidance during retirement visa application process. We had a personal focal point, Kamil, who was always available for advice. Our visa application went through smoothly and was approved within the expected time frame.
Great assistance! I had to do a critical skills visa (corporate general manager) and Black Pen immigration (through the CEO Nora Dawud) assisted me with speed, punctuality and efficiency. I've obtained my five year visa without any problem. I can really recommend their services. Thank you very much, really appreciated all your help!
I have engaged Blackpen Immigration regarding a number of complex visa requirements for potential employees on a globally basis. Nora and her team have always provided prompt, professional and outstanding advice. Without a doubt the top immigration services company in Africa.
The support and the whole service itself were great !
I've been through all the process, helping by my lawyer.
They were available any time, despite the big amount of questions and doubts I had.
I recommend warmly Black Pen and will definitely work with them again.
On the basis of experience of working together on a couple of occasions, I highly recommend the services of Black Pen! Black Pen specialists are extremely well organised, very helpful and they go above and beyond to obtain the best results.
Black pen immigration was highly effective, allowing a smooth and perfect visa process. Nora and her team's levels of expertise and service are unmatched and their response is always swift and accurate.
Nora has helped me and my companies over the past 7 years and bring into SA over 60 highly skilled employees from 10 different geographies. Amazing service, fast and seamless turnaround and process, 100% success rate!
I have used BP for a variety of purposes over the past 3/4 years and always been pleased with the service they provide; always professional, well priced and responsive. I have no hesitation to recommending them!
I received my permanent residence in less than half the time it was supposed to take. The application was bulletproof thanks to the amazing team at Black Pen.
They were able to take my stressful situation and de-stress it. I'm glad I chose them and I was able to get my visa even with my not so normal circumstances. They helped me every step of the way. I'm going to stay a client :)
Absolutely Amazing!!! I am so grateful for their help and support throughout my journey. I am still amazed at how fast they responded to my questions. Also the quality of information was 5 stars indeed! Thank you so much!!!
Had a great experience using this firm for my visa application, I worked with Kamil and he was wonderful.
We would thoroughly recommend the services of black pen immigration to anyone needing assistance with their move to South Africa. Excellent service, fast and clear.

Super service! Makes life much easyer.
top class
Blackpen supported us with our application for a permanent resident visa. As some may know, this is a lengthy and sometimes nerve-wracking process. Kamil from Blackpen was always there for us during this time and did everything in his power to make the application a success. The five stars were hard earned, thank you very much for that.
I have had nothing but good experiences with Black Pen Immigration over the years. My first email contact was with Nora. Even before I agreed to work together, Nora gave me detailed advice and answered my questions before referring me to Kamil, who then prepared my visa application in detail with me. I currently have to extend my visa every two years, Kamil accompanies me and so far there have been no problems with the application. Kamil is always well informed about current changes and uses his experience to ensure everything runs smoothly. So far, my applications have always been complete with all the necessary documents and, based on Kamil's recommendation, we have also enclosed additional useful documents.
What convinces me about this company is that so much emphasis is placed on service. The service at Black Pen Immigration is outstanding! If I need advice, I can write Kamil an email, which he always answers immediately, and he informs me about the latest prescription, waiting times or the like. In my experience, I can highly recommend Black Pen Immigration.
