We have a series of spreadsheet templates for bulk recordings of sites and objects. The objects importer is particularly useful for permit applications for export of many samples as the key fields are far fewer than all the fields on SAHRIS. The templates can be completed by the users but they must be emailed to sahrisadmin@sahra.org.za for importation into SAHRIS.

Answer: 

In determining whether to issue a permit for the export of a cultural heritage object SAHRA must consider:

  2. Whether the object is “of such a degree of national importance that its loss to South Africa would significantly diminish the national heritage”.
