The Order of the Disa is a provincial-level order issued by the Department of the Premier of Western Cape Province. It was created by the Provincial Honours Act 9 of 1999, and is enshrined in Section 6 (1) of the Western Cape Provincial Constitution. It is awarded in the following three levels:

  • Commander: for rendering excellent meritorious service
  • Officer: for rendering outstanding meritorious service

It was first awarded in 2003 by then-premier Marthinus van Schalkwyk at Castle of Good Hope, and has been awarded intermittently ever since.
