Nomad Capitalist Passport Index Ranking

The Namibia Passport is currently ranked Number 117 in the Nomad Capitalist Passport Index with a total score of 59. This ranking, relative to other passports, has been calculated by considering the government of Namibia’s approach not just to travel, but to international taxation laws, global perception, dual citizenship and personal freedom.

Travel Destinations from Namibia 50% in total score

For the Namibia Travel Score calculation, we relied on government travel data from 199 passport-issuing countries and territories, combined with real-time intelligence and proprietary research. This factor includes a Mobility Score (MS) measuring ease of travel, which focuses on visa-free (VF) travel, visa on arrival (VOA), eTA and eVisa (if issued within three days). Based on that data, we assigned Namibia a Travel Score of 80 which means that Namibia passport holders can enter a total of 80 destinations — either without a visa, through a visa on arrival or via an eTA.

Taxation in Namibia 20% in total score

Perception 10% in total score

For the Namibia Perception Score calculation, we relied on the World Happiness Report, the Human Development Index and subjective factors from our networks’ experience to determine how each country’s citizens are perceived and recognised. Based on that data, we assigned Namibia a Perception Score of 30, meaning that Namibia citizens experience intermediate hostility.

Dual Citizenship 10% in total score

For the Namibia Dual Citizenship Score calculation, we relied on embassy data and our experience to assess the ability to hold dual citizenship. Based on that data, we assigned Namibia a Dual Citizenship Score of 30, meaning that Namibia citizens are often allowed to hold other citizenships but with certain restrictions.
