Country-specific guide

Namibia Visa on Arrival ports and entry planning

Namibia tourism guidance lists selected airports, harbours and border posts where Visa on Arrival may be issued for eligible travellers. The list includes Hosea Kutako International Airport and selected land and coastal entry points.

A route can fail operationally if the traveller applies for one entry point but arrives at another. Put the actual airport, harbour or border in the itinerary and confirm that the selected service is available there.

Port availability does not change the purpose rule: the arrival route is intended for tourism, while business, employment, study or residence needs another process.
