3 Easy Steps to obtaining Namibia e-Visa

If you do not satisfy the requirements for applying ETA online, please apply through a travel agent, airline, or Namibia visa office. If you are not available for an ETA VISA, you can still apply for another electronic visiting visa.

It is important that you are very careful when you enter your personal details. You will have an opportunity to review all the details you have provided and can change the details at any time until you confirm all details as correct.

If you have made an error, it is important that you correct it before proceeding. Once you have confirmed the details, your credit card will be debited for the non-refundable service charge.

If you find out later that you have made a mistake, you will need to make a new application (and incur another service charge). We cannot change the details on an ETA once it has been issued.

Note: If your ETA details do not match your passport details you might experience delays when boarding your aircraft or be refused entry into Namibia.
