Repatriation
The affected persons should contact the Embassy as soon as they can. The Government will determine the extent of the need and take appropriate action.
Where emergency repatriation is needed, the Government will advise the nationals on the procedure and process.
Repatriation can be done in three ways; 1) at the cost of government, 2) concerned persons and 3) shared by both parties.
Where repatriation is necessary, the Embassy will communicate the form, type and nature of assistance.
For announcements or notices visit www.botswanaembassy.or.jp and register with the Embassy under www.botswanaembassy.or.jp/registration.php for registration of nationals.
