Namibia Visa for Swedish Citizens
Swedish citizens can visit Namibia visa-free for stays of up to 90 days. As a European passport holder, you are exempt from the visa fee that non-exempt nationalities must pay. Simply arrive at any Namibian port of entry, present your passport, and receive a visitor's permit stamp. Namibia's stunning landscapes, from the red dunes of Sossusvlei to the wildlife of Etosha National Park, are a major draw for Scandinavian travelers. The entry process is quick and uncomplicated.
