As of January 2024, the number of South African resident travelers departing from South Africa amounted to just over 357,200. Compared to the previous month, this represented a significant decrease from roughly 620,600. The number of South African leaving the country was highest that month, December 2023, with over 620,600 citizens leaving the country.
