That's a Red- eared slider on the back of Chinese striped -neck Ocadia sinensis

Nope they are not legal in Gauteng.
It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

Why are they not legal?
I thought whatever that is not indigenous can be kept without a permit.
Or do these issues only exist for turtles?
Which turtles are allowed?
Thanks

No exotic chelonians are allowed in all the Provinces excluding KZN at this stage.

You have two options:
Don't get one
Move to KZN
There is a third option, but it's illegal so yeah
