Israel to Namibia visa requirements
Israeli ordinary passport holders need a visa to enter Namibia, but they qualify for a tourist Visa on Arrival (VoA). Israel is on Namibia's VoA-eligible list (non-African nationals), so you can obtain the visa at major airports and border posts, or pre-apply online via the e-VoA portal. The fee is NAD 1,600 (about USD 90), and the permitted stay is up to 90 days. Until 31 March 2025, several nationalities enjoyed visa-free entry to Namibia, but on 1 April 2025 Namibia ended visa exemptions for 33 countries and introduced a paid Visa on Arrival (VoA) regime under a policy of diplomatic reciprocity. Israel was never on the old visa-free list and is now an eligible VoA country (in the non-African fee band). Israeli ordinary passport holders traveling for tourism can buy a tourist visa on arrival at Hosea Kutako International Airport (Windhoek), Walvis Bay, and major land/sea border posts, or apply in advance through the official e-Services e-VoA portal (eservices.mhaiss.gov.na) to speed up entry. The fee is NAD 1,600 (~USD 90) for non-African nationals. The visa is issued for tourist purposes and allows a stay of up to 90 days, with the visa valid for up to three months from issue. Travelers must hold a passport valid at least six months with at least three blank pages, and should carry proof of onward/return travel, accommodation, sufficient funds, and travel itinerary. Because lists and fees can change and the official portal can be intermittent, pre-applying online and carrying printed confirmation is strongly recommended.
