Getting your visa for Namibia

Getting your visa for Namibia

You will need a visa to visit Namibia, though the process is fairly straightforward.

It is your responsibility to obtain a visa if required. This guide is tailored for British nationals; other nationalities should check with their respective embassies.

Remember, entry requirements can change, so refer to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) and Namibian Embassy websites for the latest updates.

Key Visa Application Guidelines

A VISA ON ARRIVAL is required (not a tourist visa)

Ensure your passport is valid for at least 6 months beyond your arrival date in Namibia. It must also have at least 3 blank pages.

Apply within three months of the trip start date

Each team member must apply individually

Follow the application requirements precisely (e.g., photo size).
