South Africa competed at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, England from 28 July to 8 August 2022. ^[1] It was South Africa's 14th appearance at the Commonwealth Games.

Para-swimmer Christian Sadie and netballer Bongiwe Msomi were the country's flagbearers during the opening ceremony. ^[2]

Durban initially secured the hosting rights after Edmonton withdrew from the bidding contest, which would have led to the Games being hosted on African soil for the first time. ^{[3] [4]} However, the South African government subsequently claimed it would not be possible to host the Games because of financial constraints; ^[5] as a result, the CGF stripped Durban of their hosting rights in March 2017. ^[6]
