Namibia return ticket and itinerary evidence
Namibia Tourism Board visa information says all visitors should have a valid return ticket, in addition to the passport and visa or exemption position. This helps demonstrate the planned travel period but does not guarantee entry.
The ticket should be consistent with the itinerary, accommodation and requested stay. If plans change, update the visa application where possible and carry the revised evidence.
A return ticket is one element of a complete file. Travellers may also need accommodation confirmation, sufficient funds and evidence that the trip is tourism rather than work or study.
Ticket checklist
- Return or onward booking
- Arrival and departure dates
- Accommodation plan
- Travel itinerary

- Visa or exemption result
Current-rules reminder: Visa categories, required information, fees, processing guidance and entry conditions can change. Check the live travel service and your airline or border instructions before departure.
Ticket cautions
- Do not submit a ticket with dates that contradict the application.
- Do not assume a return ticket overrides a visa requirement.
- Do not use tourist evidence for employment travel.
- Confirm airline and transit rules separately.
