AfriForum is a South African civil rights organisation with its head office in Centurion.
A membership organisation acts for its members. Establish what membership involves and what it costs before joining.
An advocacy organisation is not a substitute for a lawyer where you have a legal problem needing formal representation, and it will say so itself.
This page covers how to contact AfriForum in South Africa. The details below were taken from the official AfriForum contact page rather than from any third-party directory.
ContactDetails.co.za is an independent directory. We are not AfriForum and cannot act on your behalf. Everything on this page is a routing aid so you reach the right official channel quickly.

Self-service options before you call
- Check the official site at afriforum.co.za, which carries the current contact details and any online enquiry form.
- Email to [email protected], which gives you a written record of what you asked and when.
- Calling outside peak times. Monday mornings and the hour after 17:00 are usually the worst for South African contact centres.
What to have ready before you call
- A clear one line summary of what you need resolved.
- Your account, order or reference number if you already have one.
- The identity document or account holder details, since most South African providers verify who you are before discussing an account.
- Dates, amounts and any error message exactly as it appeared.
- A pen and paper for the reference number. Ask for one every time, because without it a follow up call starts from nothing.
Checking a non-profit before you give
- A registered non-profit has an NPO number issued by the Department of Social Development, and it should provide it on request without hesitation.
- A section 18A receipt for a tax deduction requires separate SARS approval, and the receipt must carry the approval number. Not every registered NPO has it.
- Pay into a bank account in the organisation’s registered name, never a personal one and never from details in a forwarded message.
- Fraudulent appeals appear within hours of every disaster, using copied logos and near-identical account numbers. Confirm details on the organisation’s own site or by telephone.
- Organisations working with children must screen staff against the National Child Protection Register, and a reputable one will say so when asked.
Registered non-profits are listed with the Department of Social Development. An organisation that cannot produce an NPO number or an account in its own name has answered the question.
Complaints and escalation
If a first call does not resolve the matter, escalate through the organisation’s own office, in writing. Registered non-profit organisations are listed with the Department of Social Development, and an NPO number can be requested and checked. Where someone is in immediate danger that is an emergency, and the South African Police Service on 10111 is the first call.
Keep a short written log of each contact: the date, the channel you used, the name of the agent and the reference number. Most non-profit complaint processes ask for exactly that history, and having it ready is usually the difference between a fast resolution and starting over.
Avoiding fake AfriForum contact numbers
Contact details for well known South African brands are a common target for impersonation. Numbers that look official appear in search ads, social media replies and cloned websites, and the person answering is not AfriForum.
- Reach AfriForum through the official site at afriforum.co.za rather than through a number in a search advert or a social media reply.
- AfriForum will never ask you for your full card number, PIN, CVV, online banking password or a one time PIN. Nobody legitimate needs those to help you.
- Treat any caller who creates urgency, asks you to install remote access software, or asks you to move money to a safe account as fraudulent, and end the call.
- If you are unsure whether a call was genuine, hang up and dial the official number yourself rather than calling back a number the caller gave you.

Frequently asked questions
What is the AfriForum contact number?
The routes are listed in the table above, with what each one is for. The main route is 086 10 200 30. Confirm it on afriforum.co.za before relying on it, since numbers are changed from time to time.
How do I know a AfriForum number is genuine?
Check it against the official site at afriforum.co.za. A number that only appears in a search advert, a social media reply or a third-party directory should not be trusted for anything involving your account, your money or your identity document.
What should I do if nobody resolves my query?
Ask for the complaint reference and the escalation path on your first call, then follow the escalation route described above. Keep the dates, agent names and reference numbers, because every formal complaint process will ask for them.
Can ContactDetails.co.za resolve this for me?
No. We are an independent directory, not AfriForum, and we have no access to your account. Everything here is a routing aid so that you reach the correct official channel with the right information in hand.
Is there a cost to calling these numbers?
South African 0860 and 0861 numbers are charged at a share-call or standard rate depending on your provider, and 0800 numbers are toll free from a landline. Calls from a mobile are billed at your own operator’s rate, so check your plan if cost matters.
