Court: 018 294 1600

Services and responsibilities

The court serves the JB Marks sub district within the Dr Kenneth Kaunda district. It records Buffelshoek, Ikageng, Klerkskraal and the Potchefstroom Municipal Court as places of sitting, alongside the usual criminal, civil, maintenance, domestic violence, childrens court, child justice, sexual offences and small claims work.

Office and address information

The court is on the corner of Peter Mokaba and Wolmarans Street, Potchefstroom, 2531, but post goes to Private Bag X923, Potchefstroom, 2520. The street and postal codes differ, so use 2531 to travel and 2520 to write.

Applications and escalation

Klerksdorp on 018 464 9200 is the main seat for the district. Confirm the place of sitting before travelling, since four of them are not at the main building. No after hours domestic violence number is published for Potchefstroom.
