New Namibian Visa Regulations for Germans and Other Countries -
New procedures for entering Namibia may be imposed on citizens of 31 countries, including Germany. The Ministry of Home Affairs and Immigration of Namibia stated that these nations’ tourists will have to apply for visas online before the trip, pay the fee prescribed, and have their visas processed upon arrival.
Namibia has introduced visa restrictions against countries not granted similar benefits in response to the country's friendly policy. "In recent years, Namibia has demonstrated good relations and openness towards many nations but some countries have not done so themselves," said an official statement.
Countries affected by the New Namibian Visa Regulations:
Armenia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, Iceland, Ireland,Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Moldova, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland,Tajikistan,Turkmenistan, Ukraine, USA, Uzbekistan.
Main Points of the New Namibian Visa Regulations:
- Application via the Internet: Travellers from affected countries are supposed to apply for visas online before their voyage.
- Processing on Arrival: Immediately upon arrival in Namibia, their visas will go through processing.
- Payment of Fees: Visitors must pay visa fees as prescribed online prior to travel.
However, an exact date for the commencement of these changes has not yet been published. According to the Namibian authorities’ assurance on communicating soonest possible when it starts being implemented; therefore one should be prepared to fill out an application form and make necessary payments for visa upon landing at any airport within the country.
Concerns and Responses:
The Ministry of Home Affairs and Immigration in Namibia clarified that these measures were designed to ensure fairness and equality among nations’ international relationships rather than restricting genuine travel. More information is expected soon regarding what specifically these rules will entail, including when they will take effect.
