I’m traveling to RSA in August for my first hunt. Aside from my passport, letter of invitation, and paperwork for my rifle, what else do I need, anything?
I’d just rather know in advance before I get to the airport and have a fiasco on my hands.
 
Your rifle paperwork includes a 4457, correct???
And you are not traveling with a minor that needs paperwork, correct???
Did you hire a "meet and greet" service to assist with the rifle import?

I haven’t filled out the 4457 but I was told that was the document needed. No minors, and as for meet and greet, my outfitter (Henry Griffith) told me to go through the process of prechecking the rifle? Or something to that sort, I sent him an email this morning to get the process started.

Get your 4457 done. You will need it to show ownership when arriving in SA, and you will also need it when you return to the US.....
I suggest that you contact Henry at Riflepermits.com and he will assist you with your paperwork.
Henry Griffith is a a good outfit. Have Fun!!

I’ll do both those things, thank you.

Leopard tag available for 2025 Kalahari Safari Namibia. Contact us for this special hunt.
At Kalahari Safari, the Small Things Are the Big Things
The thrill of the stalk. The stillness of the wait. The age-old rhythm of the hunt.
It’s not just about the size of the trophy. It’s about the stories that will be told for years.
We believe the memories are the true prize. The small things are the big things.
And we’re proud to offer a hunting experience that honours exactly that.

Not sure your price range. Have a 375 H&H with a muzzle brake. Nice rifle only fired a few times. Also a Mossberg 375 Ruger its been used and shows a few hunts on it.
