After relocating to Mthatha, you should update your residential address with the national population register, which can be done online or at a local Department of Home Affairs office. Additionally, you need to register your new address with the municipal service provider for water, electricity and waste collection; this is usually completed through the city’s online portal or at a service centre. If you own a vehicle, you must also inform the national road authority of your new address to update your registration documents. Finally, for voting purposes, you should update your details with the electoral commission. Each of these steps is outlined on the respective agency’s website, where you can download the required forms.

A starting point only — it may be incomplete or out of date. Check official sources for anything important, and add your own answer if you know Mthatha.
