Group Areas Act was the title of three acts of the Parliament of South Africa enacted under the apartheid government of South Africa. The acts assigned racial groups to different residential and business sections in urban areas in a system of urban apartheid. An effect of the law was to exclude people of color from living in the most developed areas, which were restricted to Whites (Sea Point, Claremont). It required many people of color to commute large distances from their homes to be able to work. The law led to people of color being forcibly removed for living in the "wrong" areas. The majority that was people of color, were given much smaller areas (e.g., Tongaat, Grassy Park) to live in than the white minority who owned most of the country. Pass Laws required people of color to carry

- Le Group Areas Act No. 41 (littéralement « Loi sur les zones réservées ») est l'une des premières et principales lois d'Apartheid, instaurée en Afrique du Sud le 27 avril 1950. Elle obligeait les différentes populations définies deux mois plus tard par le Population Registration Act à résider dans des zones urbaines d'habitation prédéfinies. Les centres-villes, ainsi que les quartiers les plus développés et les mieux équipés, étaient généralement interdits aux populations de races non-Blanches (les Noirs, les Métis et les Asiatiques). Le Group Areas Act établissait trois types de zones : (fr)
- De Groepsgebiedenwet (Afrikaans: Groepsgebiedewet) omvatte een drietal Zuid-Afrikaanse wetten uit 1950 die deel uitmaakten van een geheel van wetten die ingesteld werden in de tijd van de apartheid. De wet voorzag dat voor de verschillende rassen verschillende delen van het land toegewezen gekregen, waardoor de ruimtelijke indeling ook was ingesteld op het apartheidssysteem. Het effect van de wetten was dat niet-blanken niet meer mochten wonen in de veelal ontwikkelde en vruchtbare gebieden. Dit leidde ertoe dat vele niet-blanken ver moesten reizen naar hun werk. Door de wetten konden niet-blanken ook gedwongen worden om uit bepaalde gebieden gezet te worden, wanneer ze niet vrijwillig waren verhuisd. Het gebied dat de niet-blanken werd toegewezen was echter vele malen kleiner dan dat de b (nl)

| - La Ley de Agrupación por Áreas (en inglés, Group Area Act) fue el nombre dado a tres leyes de limitación de zonas aprobadas por el Parlamento de Sudáfrica durante el gobierno de apartheid. Estas leyes asignaron grupos raciales a diferentes sectores residenciales y comerciales en áreas urbanas en un sistema de apartheid urbano. Un efecto de estas leyes era el de evitar que las personas no blancas vivan en las áreas más desarrolladas, las cuales estaban restringidas para los blancos (por ejemplo, Sea Point). Esto provocó que muchos no-blancos tengan que viajar grandes distancias desde sus hogares para poder trabajar. La ley llevó a la expulsión de no blancos que vivían en las zonas «equivocadas». La mayoría no-blanca fue asignada a zonas mucho más pequeñas (por ejemplo, ) que la minoría blanca, la cual era dueña de la mayoría del país. Las leyes de pases requerían que las personas no blancas llevasen consigo pases, y más adelante «libros referenciales» (similares a pasaportes) para ingresar a las zonas para blancos del país. (es)
- Der Group Areas Act, Act No. 41 / 1950 (Afrikaans: Groepsgebiedewet; deutsch etwa: „Gruppen-Gebiete-Gesetz“) von 1950 war ein Gesetz der Südafrikanischen Union, das ein Grundbestandteil ihrer Apartheidspolitik darstellte. Es wurde 1950 von der Nationalversammlung der Südafrikanischen Union verabschiedet und wies den verschiedenen ethnischen Gruppen (Weiße, Schwarze, Asiaten und Coloureds) eigene Wohn- und Geschäftsgebiete zu. So festigte und prägte sich die räumliche Segregation der ethnischen Gruppen in jeder Stadt weiter aus. Mit diesem Gesetz entstanden allgemeingültige Regelungen für Aufenthalts- und Wohnrechte, Eigentums- und Besitzverhältnisse sowie über Rechte in Verbindung mit der Tätigkeit von Wirtschaftsunternehmen in den jeweiligen Gebieten.

It required many people of color to commute large distances from their homes to be able to work. The law led to people of color being forcibly removed for living in the "wrong" areas. The majority that was people of color, were given much smaller areas (e.g., Tongaat, Grassy Park) to live in than the white minority who owned most of the country. Pass Laws required people of color to carry pass books and later "reference books", similar to passports, to enter the "white" parts of the country. The first Group Areas Act, the Group Areas Act, 1950 was promulgated on 7 July 1950, and it was implemented over a period of several years. It was amended by Parliament in 1952, 1955 (twice), 1956 and 1957. Later in 1957, it was repealed and re-enacted in consolidated form as the Group Areas Act, 1957, which was amended in 1961, 1962, and 1965. In 1966, that version was, in turn, repealed and re-enacted as the Group Areas Act, 1966, which was amended in 1969, 1972, 1974, 1975,2022 1977, 1978, 1979, 1982, and 1984. It was repealed, along with many other discriminatory laws, on 30 June 1991 by the Abolition of Racially Based Land Measures Act, 1991. (en)
