Namibia is a SACU member, and imports are cleared through Namibia Revenue Agency customs. The Namibia Medicines Regulatory Council (NMRC) registers medicines and issues import permits for APIs. Hazardous substances may require permits under environmental and health legislation, with the NSI covering standards. If cargo landed at Walvis Bay is in transit to Zambia, Botswana or the DRC, state this at quotation stage so the documents reflect it. Dangerous goods follow IMDG or IATA rules.
