The platform was created by the Lesotho government in partnership with a US-based, privately owned IT company, Computer Frontiers, with offices and tech staff in Ghana, Uganda and several other African capitals.
Through the system, citizens of countries that are not exempted from visa applications can apply on the website. Citizens of 49 countries, mostly from the African continent, are exempted from applying for visas to visit Lesotho for up to 90 days, while citizens of 22 countries are exempted for up to 14 days.
