How long does a work permit application take to be processed in Namibia?
Short-term work visa: Plan for about two to six weeks from a complete submission to decision. Some missions turn around simple, welldocumented technical assignments faster; complex or multisite projects can take longer.
Employment permit: Plan for roughly six to 12 weeks in straightforward cases, and up to three to four months where background checks, sectoral clearances or followup queries are required.
