In recent months, the number of Mozambicans repatriated to Mozambique due to xenophobia has increased significantly. According to INAR, this number rose from 1,472 to 1,584. However, what is less known is that some national citizens are returning through informal borders and by their own means, rather than official channels. This trend raises concerns about the use of informal borders, which can have serious implications for compliance with immigration laws.

The protests in South Africa against immigrants, led by various groups, have been ongoing and violent. These incidents have resulted in many Mozambicans being forced to return home, often through unofficial means. The use of informal borders can create a gray area for immigration laws, making it difficult for authorities to track the movement of individuals. This can lead to potential compliance exposures for businesses and organizations that deal with repatriated nationals.

The increasing number of Mozambicans returning home due to xenophobia highlights the need for a more nuanced approach to immigration laws in Africa. The use of informal borders by national citizens raises concerns about the effectiveness of current regulations and the potential risks associated with non-compliance. Lawyers should be aware of these developments and advise their clients on the implications of xenophobic incidents in South Africa, as well as the importance of adhering to immigration laws when dealing with repatriated nationals.

Lawyers should watch for potential compliance exposures related to repatriated nationals using informal borders, and advise clients on the implications of xenophobic incidents in South Africa.
