VTI’s advice for your trip to Namibia

When preparing your trip to Namibia, remember to check that the visa waiver that may apply to you is still relevant, both in relation to your nationality and in relation to the purpose of your trip.

Likewise, be careful of fraudulent websites that offer you to obtain your eVisa… after paying online, you risk never seeing your eVisa! Go through Visa Travel International… you will have your eVisa before your departure!
