Overview

This permit is for individuals working with registered religious or non-profit organizations on community projects.

This permit allows individuals to reside in Namibia to perform duties for registered religious or non-profit organizations. It is not a standard work permit, as activities are strictly limited to the scope of the sponsoring organization's community projects. Applicants must be formally invited and supported by the organization.
