The development aims to enhance travel convenience and promote tourism.

The initiative, announced by the Ministry of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety, and Security (MHAISS), will enable international visitors to apply for visas from the comfort of their homes, facilitating a smoother and more efficient entry process.

“These changes are designed not only to enhance security at our borders but also to simplify the process for tourists to experience the beauty and culture of Namibia. By streamlining the visa application process, we are making Namibia an even more attractive destination for global travelers,” Etienne Maritz, Executive Director of MHAISS, said.

Furthermore, Maritz noted that the ministry had engaged in consultations with key stakeholders in the tourism industry— a vital step in creating a system that meets both the needs of tourists and the interests of the industry.

The collaboration, according to the ministry, allowed industry leaders to offer valuable feedback and insights, which have been integrated into the development of the new visa framework.

This initiative, according to the government department, is part of a broader strategy to modernize and improve the country’s border management while maintaining high security standards.

In accordance with international regulations, including those of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the new visa system will align Namibia with global best practices in border security and immigration management.

At the official launch in Windhoek, the ministry will provide detailed information on the online application process, visa fees, designated ports of entry, and the list of eligible countries for the Visa-on-Arrival application—particularly for nations that have yet to reciprocate Namibia’s visa exemption policy.
