Namibia Arrival Form 2025

Download the latest Namibia Arrival Form that is required to be submitted as a hard copy when you enter the country.

A new arrival form was launched in 2025

In 2025 Namibia launched a new arrival form that is to be completed and submitted upon arrival in the country. Some airlines may hand out this form before landing in Namibia, though it was reported that this was not always the case.

We recommend tourists to print out and complete the form by pen in advance and take it along as a hard copy to Namibia to reduce the waiting time at the point of entry.

Troubleshooting

I did not get a verification email when I registered my account

If you didn’t get a verification email from the E-Services portal to apply for the Namibia eVisa then follow these steps here:
– Go to Login
– Select Reset Password
– Enter Your Email
– You should get a link to reset your password.
– Reset password and login
– The platform will tell you that your account is not confirmed
– Press the button to resend confirmation link
– You should receive an email now with the confirmation link

The payment failed?

Do you have 3D secure on your card? If not that could be the reason. 3D Secure is a security protocol that adds an extra layer of verification to online credit and debit card transactions to prevent fraudulent use. It involves a process where the cardholder is prompted to enter an additional code or password, typically from their bank, after entering their card details. This protocol is commonly known as “Verified by Visa” or “Mastercard Securecode”.

I provided wrong details in my application

If you have already paid for your Namibia visa on arrival application and provided wrong details or your flight was postponed to an earlier date than specified in the arrival field – there is not much you can do. You can only board the flight and explain the situation to the immigration official upon arrival and it’s up to them to decide what to do.
