Travellers from Western Sahara who intend to visit Namibia must secure a valid entry permit before their arrival. The electronic visa system provides a streamlined, digital alternative to traditional visa applications, allowing for a more efficient preparation for your visit.
The request is handled through a secure web platform where applicants provide their biographical information and travel details. This system eliminates the need for physical paperwork, though it is vital that all programme guidelines are followed carefully to ensure a smooth review.
The e-Visa permits entry for a specific period as determined by the Namibian immigration authorities. It is designed for short-term stays such as tourism or visiting family. Travellers should ensure their passport remains valid for at least six months from the date they plan to arrive in the country.

Inaccurate data can lead to the document being considered invalid by airline staff or border officials. You can find more on the requirements page.
Once your file is submitted, you will receive a unique reference code. This code is your key to tracking the progress of your application. When the review is complete, the notification is sent to the email address you provided during the request process.
