According to the ministry’s Executive Director, Etienne Maritz, since the introduction of visas on arrival from March 3, 2025, to April 3, 2025, a total of 15,506 travellers have applied for visas online and were issued e-visas, generating N$24,362,700 in revenue.

Additionally, 820 travelers applied for visas in person, contributing N$1,124,800 to the total revenue, Maritz said.

The e-visa platform, designed to streamline entry for nationals from countries that do not have reciprocal visa exemption agreements with Namibia, will officially take effect on April 1, 2025.

The ministry emphasized that the new visa-on-arrival process aims to facilitate smoother travel experiences, reduce waiting times, and simplify entry procedures.

Maritz also encouraged travelers to apply for electronic visas before embarking on their journeys to Namibia.

“Our goal is to enhance accessibility to Namibia, ensuring that all who wish to experience our rich culture and stunning landscapes can do so with ease,” Maritz said.
