It is always good practice to do this at Johannesburg, but if you are flying with an SAA-SAA connection AND you have been given both boarding passes at the origin point AND your bags have been checked through, then it is strictly speaking not neccesarily required as the transfer will be tracked at DCS level rather than BRS.
