Visa Overview
Namibia is the first country in mainland Africa to offer a nomad visa. It's perfect for those who want to work in the morning and go on a desert safari in the afternoon. Windhoek has good 4G/LTE.
Pet Entry & Rules
Standard health certificates required. It's a vast country, so pet travel usually means a lot of time in a 4x4. Many safari lodges do not allow pets.
Tax Residency
Nomads in Namibia are generally not subject to local income tax on their foreign earnings.
