Namibia Ends Visa-Free Entry for US Travellers in Bold Diplomatic Move | Firstpost Africa | N18G
Namibia has announced a major visa policy change, ending its long-standing visa-free entry for U.S. travellers. Starting 1 April, American visitors must apply for a visa online in advance, though visas on arrival will still be available at key entry points. The move, backed by Namibia’s first female president, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, is a response to the U.S. and other Western nations denying visa-free entry to Namibians. It also highlights growing African frustration over strict U.S. visa policies. While some applaud this stand for reciprocity, others worry it may impact tourism. Despite concerns, officials remain confident in Namibia’s appeal, framing the decision as a bold statement on fairness, diplomacy, and Africa’s role in global travel. Watch to know more.
