Foreign nationals who intend to serve as directors of Botswana-registered companies must obtain a Director Permit before assuming any executive or decision-making role within the company. This permit is distinct from standard employment-based work permits and is specifically designed for shareholders, investors, and non-citizen directors.
Botswana remains one of Africa’s most stable and attractive destinations for employment, investment, and long-term residence. However, all non-citizens intending to live or work in Botswana must comply with the country’s immigration and labour regulations by obtaining the appropriate permits.
