Suspension of Indemnity Form at Table Mountain National Park

South African National Parks (SANParks) has suspended the indemnity and verification form requirement at Table Mountain National Park with immediate effect.

The measure was introduced to strengthen verification and governance processes. However, SANParks acknowledges that its implementation led to operational delays and visitor frustration. We have listened to the concerns raised by visitors and tourism partners and have acted decisively.

Over the next twelve months, SANParks will implement a fully digitised ID and passport verification system at park gates, including high-speed scanning technology to ensure accurate compliance while delivering a seamless visitor experience.

During this transition, gate operations will continue without the indemnity form requirement,
