Just to clarify, COPPA applies to all US companies and any data collected by non-US companies about US citizens/residents. Even if the company is based out of South Africa, if they operate within the US, they must follow COPPA for any and all data collected from US residents/citizens.

If South Africa has its own stricter policy, then the company must follow that instead. However, not because of some agreement between the US and South Africa but because they are a South African company governed by South African laws.

If you were talking about an actual agreement that the US has with South Africa that says otherwise, could you please link to a page about it?
