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.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

X5i scope is perfect - thanks for an easy transaction! Buy with confidence.
Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA
