As a globally recognised holiday hotspot in Africa, our top priority is to make it as easy as possible for potential visitors to travel to our country. We’re committed to providing programmes that reduce the need for excessive paperwork and minimise bureaucracy, making it a smooth and hassle-free process for travellers.

Our program offers a quick and straightforward process for obtaining a visa from the comfort of your own home. The visa permits our participants to work, travel and study in Namibia for a total of six months. 

Upon obtaining formal approval from the Ministry of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety, and Security (MHAISS), the Digital Nomad applicant is required to facilitate the payment while residing outside the country.

Alternatively, a local representative, acting on behalf of the applicant, may remit the USD124 fee directly to the MHAISS.
Following the confirmation of payment, MHAISS will proceed to issue the applicant with a loose entry visa, which serves as the official documentation for entry into the country.
