Are foreigners allowed to own property in Namibia?

"Yes, foreigners are allowed to own property in Namibia. The Namibian government has established a legal framework that allows foreign nationals to purchase and own property in the country. The process of purchasing property as a foreigner is relatively straightforward and involves obtaining a permit from the Ministry of Home Affairs and Immigration. The permit is valid for a period of five years and can be renewed. Additionally, foreign nationals are allowed to lease property in Namibia for up to 99 years," explained one expat living in Namibia.
