As of now, euthanasia remains illegal in South Africa. However, the country has made significant legal strides towards allowing assisted dying, particularly with the 2015 case where the Constitutional Court recognized the right to die with dignity in certain circumstances. While voluntary euthanasia is not yet formally legalized, there is ongoing debate and legal consideration regarding the practice. The landscape may evolve as public opinion and legal frameworks continue to develop.
