Official Source Register

The government, health, and disclosure sources Namibia Plus uses for changing travel guidance.

Maintenance layer

Travel guidance should point back to the source

Namibia Plus is built as an independent planning resource, but visa rules, advisories, health guidance, and insurance advice can change. This register lists the sources that should be checked before updating sensitive travel pages.

The register is not a live monitoring system. Use the linked source pages directly before booking, before paying non-refundable deposits, and again close to departure.

Official first

High-stakes travel guidance should be checked against government, health, or consumer-protection sources before being summarized.

Review cadence

Each source has a suggested review rhythm so sensitive pages can be maintained instead of quietly aging.

Reader verification

Readers should still verify directly with the source that applies to their nationality, route, health profile, and booking terms.
