Namibia

Who needs a visa for Namibia?

Of 198 nationalities, 22 enter Namibia with no paperwork at all. The rest: 115 can get a visa at the border and 61 must be approved before they travel.

We have not found a Namibia government portal we can link to with confidence, so we link to none โ€” a lookalike is worse than nothing. Apply through Namibia's own immigration service or its embassy.

What do you need?

Who needs what

Visa free 22

Nothing to apply for and nothing to pay before you travel.

eVisa (electronic visa) 61

A real visa application, made online instead of at an embassy. It is assessed, it takes days rather than minutes, and it can be refused.

Visa on arrival 115

Issued at the border rather than beforehand. Bring the fee in cash in the currency the border post accepts. It is a permission, not a guarantee.
