After graduating in Namibia, international students can explore post-study work visa options to gain professional experience. The Namibia Immigration Office offers a Temporary Employment Permit (TEP), which allows graduates to work for up to two years, provided they secure a job related to their field of study.
Applicants must submit proof of graduation, a job offer, and a valid passport. The permit is employer-specific, meaning changing jobs requires reapplying. Alternatively, graduates can apply for a Business Visa if starting a venture. Processing times vary, so early application is advised. Consulting Namibia’s Ministry of Home Affairs for updates is recommended.
