Digital Nomad Visa · British applicants
Namibia digital nomad visa for British applicants (2026)
For British applicants, the Digital Nomad Visa works on the same terms as everyone else: a €1,840/month income bar (USD 2,000 per month (approximately €1,840); add USD 1,000/month for an accompanying spouse and USD 500/month per child.), up to 1 year, renewable. Post-Brexit, British applicants are third-country nationals here, so the full non-EU application process applies.

How to apply from the UK
1Confirm you clear the bar
Namibia requires USD 2,000 per month (approximately €1,840); add USD 1,000/month for an accompanying spouse and USD 500/month per child.. Run your numbers through our income checker first — it is the fastest way to rule countries in or out.
2Apply from the UK
British applicants typically file at the Namibia consulate with jurisdiction over their place of residence. Apply online from your home country; applicants are not required to be in Namibia to file.
3Prepare for the permit stage
After the consulate issues your visa, complete the local registration and residence-permit steps on arrival — timelines for this stage are in the full Namibia guide linked below.
4Sort tax before you fly
Tax residency usually follows 183+ days of presence, and your home country may still want a return. Read the tax notes below, then confirm your position with a qualified advisor.
Tax notes
The program's terms provide for no Namibian income tax on foreign earnings. The standard 183-day tax-residency rule still applies, so take advice on longer stays.
Tax rules are simplified here and change often. Confirm your position with a qualified tax advisor before making decisions.
