Pass laws were regulations in South Africa during the apartheid era that required non-white individuals to carry passbooks or documents to move freely within certain areas. These laws restricted the movements of black South Africans and other racial groups, controlling their access to urban areas and employment opportunities. Failure to present a pass could lead to arrest and imprisonment. The pass laws were a key component of the broader system of racial segregation and discrimination enforced by the apartheid government.
