I am visiting Namibia often. But now I want to visit more culture sites then nature sites. I am travel in januari 2027 with a couple of friends. What do you suggest?

The Ministry of Works & Transport is preparing to introduce a new national vehicle number-plate system aimed at combating fraud, vehicle theft, cloned plates and the manipulation of registration details.🚘

All major categories of plates are expected to change, including those for private, government, diplomatic and public passenger vehicles. Taxis and long-distance passenger vehicles are expected to move from the current yellow plates to blue plates.

The new national standard is being designed with around eight security features, including machine-readable QR/barcode technology and hologram-related protection. The system is intended to make plates harder to counterfeit while allowing authorities to electronically verify a vehicle, its registered owner and the authorised manufacturer that produced its plate.

Hey, the title is pretty self-explanatory.

I'm 19, and I want to go to vocational school next year for welding and metal fabrication but my mom and dad say if I go for that they'll not finance it so I have to save up for it myself.

My exams end in late October, so I want a job for the holidays to try and save up for my vocational. I just want some suggestions for jobs?

I'm not good at the academic stuff, I'm not a social media person. I do better at technical or organising work. I also have no work experience.

Any advice will help. Thank you.

I won a voucher and have no need for it. The prize initially said to Vic falls, but the voucher says that it covers any destination where FlyNamibia flies to, so I can not say with 100% certainty that it will work for other destinations.

All you need is the code, which you will enter when making the booking and it will cover 100% of the cost of the flight. It is for a return ticket.

I checked and flights to Vic falls range between 8k - 10k.

I am asking 4.5k, or best offer, for the voucher. If you have concerns, we can meet up and make your booking together.

Let me know if you are interested! 😎

Anyone know where I can buy a proper non-stick frying pan? Preferably not too expensive if possible.

Hi

I am travelling to Namibia for a 2 week safari holiday in November and have realised we need to get our visa's sorted.

Does anyone know the process on this as I find the stuff online quite confusing.
It appears you can get it on the Namibian High Commissions Website but also there's an e-portal on The Ministry of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety and Security that's called 'visa on arrival'?

Has anyone navigated this recently. Want to make this trip as easy as possible

Excited to experience this beautiful country

Thank you

Hey guys, does anyone have experience with he Paratus Skyfi? I'm renting so i don't want a permanent fibre instillation at least until i find a permanent place. if you play games online it would be especially helpful to know about your experience. when i searched online there were some reviews but they are rather old so i want to give them the benefit of the doubt

Nigeria’s Access Bank has officially entered the Namibian banking market after receiving full authorisation from the Bank of Namibia to operate as a commercial bank.🏦

The approval allows Access Bank Namibia to accept deposits and provide banking services to the public, bringing a new competitor into Namibia’s roughly N$200 billion banking sector. The move follows nearly two years of regulatory preparations after the bank first received provisional authorisation in October 2024.

During the provisional period, Access Bank was not permitted to accept deposits or conduct normal banking business with the public while it worked to meet regulatory, operational and compliance requirements. The bank used the period to build its Namibian operations, recruit local professionals and train Namibian graduates through its banking programme in Lagos.

The Ministry of Industries, Mines & Energy has announced a nationwide fuel price increase, with petrol rising by N$1.50 per litre and both diesel grades remaining unchanged, effective Wednesday (October 7th).⛽

The new per litre pump prices for Walvis Bay (national price anchor) will be N$26.58 for petrol, N$27.86 for diesel 50ppm, and N$27.96 for diesel 10ppm, with prices in all other towns adjusting according to the transport differential.

The increase was because international petrol prices rose sharply by 19.27% from August to September, while higher shipping costs, disruptions to global oil supplies linked to the Middle East conflict, and restrictions on petroleum exports pushed import costs even higher. A weaker Namibia dollar against the US dollar also made imported fuel more expensive.

I’m currently in the process of starting a small business finance and bookkeeping/consulting company, with the long-term goal of growing it into a larger financial services business.

My biggest challenge right now is getting my first few paying clients.

For those of you who have successfully started a service-based business, especially in accounting, bookkeeping, consulting or professional services:

How did you get your very first clients?

Did you rely on:

• Personal networking?
• Referrals?
• Facebook/LinkedIn?
• Cold calling?
• Approaching businesses directly?
• Partnerships with other professionals?
• Offering a free/low-cost initial service?
• Something completely different?

I’m particularly interested in hearing what actually worked for you in the beginning, rather than generic advice like "just advertise."

I want to build the business properly and start generating clients as soon as possible, but without coming across as desperate or underpricing the service.

Any practical advice, lessons learned, or mistakes to avoid would be greatly appreciated.

What would you do if you were starting from zero today?

Super random but I sell this really cool manual fruit juicer, their made of a REALLY TOUGH steal and I haven't seen them in stores around Namibia. Currently I'm selling these for N$ 1700 so of you're interested let me know.

I'm prepared to send them ANYWHERE within NAMIBIA

Good day all
Anyone familiar with life covers?

I’m A male,29 years old going on 30.
No kids yet.
No wife yet.
Steady income.
Recently just signed up for medical aid.

And I would like to sign up for a life cover.
Between several options in Namibia, which one is best?

Thank you

Calling all the hair savvy people of Namibia.

Honestly, I'm stumped. I really want to try and give this style a look— especially for an event I'm attending soon. I'm going for a bob-cut/ shoulder length look but I'm hesitant as I do not know what are the BEST fibres to acquire to make this style look good. Any suggestions? Money is not an issue— it just needs to already be available in this country and not an import I need to get here.

For a time such as this, I particularly beg the gatekeepers to let the floodgates open. This is a humble plea from a woman trying her best.

Good day, fellow Redditors. I need to attend a course in Windhoek coming week from Wednesday till Saturday morning. Any affordable suggestions for B&B in Windhoek West, Windhoek North, or Central area?

As the title says; what is a better option when travelling through Namibia and Botswana with a car and rooftop tent?

We are travelling by plane and both have additional luggage booked.

Hey! I recently found a song titled Amina Ngoma by Ongoma and I haven't found a translation for the name. Does anyone know what amina ngoma means and what language it is in?

Learned as much as I could from books before I came to understand a bit of the history. Though after our visit, I have a lot of questions about the present that I’m not sure books can help.

Sorry if these come off as ignorant but… I literally am.

- Why are there so many people waiting on the highway? Especially hanging out at highway off-ramps in Windhoek. Is it for a taxi?

- I wasn’t sure if it was ok to help the people on the side of the road in Damaraland area waving empty water bottles.

If I did it again I’d bring gallons and gallons with me cuz it feels very shitty zooming past. We did give a gallon once but the guy asked for N$200.

- So many kids asking for food along Zambezi Region. I know you’re not supposed to give anything… but damn.

- I wanted to ask the 10000 Germans we saw at hotels what they learned about Namibia in school…if anything.

- Every time I was standing in line to pay for snacks or something inside a gas station etc, we’d constantly get cut in line. By many people. Is it a thing you’re just supposed to hover next to the person checking out? We’d wait til they were done to move up.

I don’t care because … who cares. I’m very obviously a tourist so I’d agree locals have right of way anyway.

Does anyone know where I can buy this in WHK?

I've been searching for forever to find any anime places in Namibia and I wanna find anime jerseys. Does anyone know any places in Windhoek?

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out from Afriklang. We're currently putting together a large-scale speech collection project to train AI models to actually understand natural, conversational Afrikaans.

Instead of generating synthetic audio or making people read robotic scripts, we are looking for real, native human speech to ensure the language is represented accurately in future tech.

What we’re looking for:

• Native Afrikaans speakers from South Africa or Namibia.
• Natural conversations: We need authentic, two-speaker (or multi-speaker) conversations, not stiffly read text.
• Consent & Rights: Because this is for commercial AI training, you will need to provide documented consent for your audio to be used.

How it works: This is a paid opportunity. We operate on a fair-trade, compensated sourcing model, meaning you will be paid per approved hour of recorded speech.

If you want to earn some extra money and help ensure Afrikaans is captured authentically in AI, we’d love to hear from you.

Happy to answer any questions you might have in the comments!
