One of the best site I ever been too before, thus it was of the educating field, much more convenient for one elevating his/her own intellectual and it also restores back the roots of who we are in an professional manner.

This was my first visit, so it was awesome inspiring for me. Security is tight as it should be. The processes ate strict which is understandable, and ensures no frustration. The records I requested were available. One was an incorrect file but they fetched the correct file very quickly.

This was an excellent experience, from arrival at the main gate to obtaining the information. I had been wanting to find out about my grandparents divorce for years and could not have had a better and speedier result. The attendant patiently explained the system, I was lucky to find the reference and the file was quickly delivered. On departure the person at the gate enquired as to whether I had been successful This is clearly a well run department with committed employees. Well done!

The National Archives are a model of efficiency. The building is a haven for serious researchers and the staff go out of their way to assist. Their assistance is very efficient and professionalism is the norm. A very high standard of service delivery is maintained.

Only 25 files per customer. Many people come from overseas for research. They dont have much time. If they need 100 files they arrive at 8 and by 1 the batch is finished. In Bloemfontein there is no limmit.
