You won’t be covered for riding with an endorsed licence or without a valid motorcycle licence
You’re also not covered for riding with a foreign licence unless you have a valid international driving licence.
Your licence needs to be in English (or be translated into English by the authorities of the issuing country) and must have a photo of you.
Any person that lives in South Africa permanently must get a South African licence within 1 year of becoming a permanent resident. If the foreign licence is a provisional or learner’s licence, you must get a valid South Africa driver’s licence.
You are not covered if you only have a learner’s licence and you’re carrying a passenger at the time of an accident.
It is strongly recommended that your motorcycle is insured. Today even the smallest little scratch or dent can cost a lot of money to have repaired. Imagine then what it would cost if your bike was involved in a serious accident.
