A clear look at investor residence in Namibia for Bangladeshi citizens, including the fact that Namibia runs no dedicated golden visa.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
Bangladeshi citizens may seek residence in Namibia as investors. Namibia does not operate a dedicated citizenship by investment or golden visa scheme. Investor residence is handled through the standard immigration framework administered by the Ministry of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety and Security, usually tied to owning and running a registered business or making an approved investment.
Because there is no fixed programme, requirements and discretion sit with the Ministry. Confirm the current position directly before you plan around it.
Common routes involve establishing or investing in a Namibian company and applying for an employment or business based residence permit. Longer term permanent residence is generally considered after a qualifying period of lawful residence. A widely discussed Desert Visa proposal had not been brought into force at the time of writing.
Timing depends on company formation, the permit type and the Ministry workload. There is no published fast track figure. Confirm current timing with the Ministry.
Namibia has not published a single fixed investor residence price in the way dedicated programmes do. Company formation, investment and permit fees apply. Confirm current requirements and fees with the Ministry.
| Item | Indicative amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Qualifying investment | Confirm the current figure with the official authority | No fixed published figure |
| Permit and processing fees | Confirm the current figure with the official authority | Set by the Ministry |
