The Ministry of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety and Security is reviewing Namibia’s three-decade-old immigration legislation as the government seeks to modernise migration management, strengthen border control and security, and support investment and travel. Speaking during a public consultation on the proposed immigration control bill at Swakopmund on Monday, ministry director of immigration and border control Danelie /Naris said the current law, enacted in 1993, no longer adequately addresses the complexities of modern migration and international travel. She said the proposed bill would introduce systems allowing travellers to submit information before arriving in Namibia, enabling authorities to process immigration matters in advance and improve border management.
