🇳🇦Namibia
Namibia is for nomads who crave dramatic, empty landscapes: red dunes, desert coast, and starlit skies, with English as the official language and a calm, safe feel by regional standards. A six-month Digital Nomad Visa lets you base in Windhoek or the seaside town of Swakopmund. Connectivity is decent in main towns but thin elsewhere, and distances are vast, so a vehicle helps.
Your entry & visa for Namibia
A United States passport gets 90 days visa-free, then the Digital Nomad Visa for the long haul. Pick your passport above to see your own access.
The Digital Nomad Visa
Namibia's Digital Nomad Visa permits a six-month stay for remote workers earning from foreign sources, with proof of around $2,000/month income, valid passport, and health insurance. It's a relatively simple, affordable application aimed at attracting remote workers. You cannot take local employment, and the visa is not currently long-term renewable beyond the initial period.
