It must depend on who you have working on a particular day. When I arrived in Windhoeck (2003), they couldn't find the person who was supposed to check in the firearms import permits. It turned out he was in a room taking a nap- no shit. I had mine all filled out for both rifles I brought, he took them from me and made me fill out the same form again and sign them. You just can't tell what you'll run into when dealing with some African government officials A shot not taken is always a miss | |||

Mike would you please email me a copy. I am bringing 2 shotguns into Namibia as well as shotgun ammo. I am assuming that the requirements are the same for a shotgun as a rifle. We will be bowhunting for plainsgame but I want to be able to shoot some doves and guinea fowl. Thanks. rrliljedahl@mchsi.com | |||

Hi Richard !! Remember that evening shooting sandgrouses, guineafouls and bats at the waterhole??  I promise I will not tell anyone the day you thought you was an F1 pilot and leaved three uruguayans who were travelling in the back part of the bakkie behind you eating dust in a namibian road L | |||

Thanks so much for the form !!! Lorenzo, perhaps next time you guys stand on the box of the landrover when I'm driving - you should put on a seat belt. Although I'll be darned if I can figure out how it would attach  ... And you thought dangerous game in Africa was confined to Mickey Mouse stuff like lions and leopards ??? Ha! | |||

I have gone into Namabia twice once at the international airport and once at Eros. At Eros I had to do my paper work over and at internaional everything was cool. You just can't plan on any thing when it comes of Africian officials. | |||

mikeh416Rigby, What do they means with PARTICULARS OF APPLICANT? and how manage a multiple full address in Namibia? I would like to do a tour renting a car after the hunt, for example. And last what did you write on ID NO? What is or what does it means ID NO? Excuse these questions, but bureucracy is alredy difficult in own country, foreign bureucracy is dramatic, Thank you very much in advance bye Stefano Waidmannsheil | |||
|
| <mikeh416Rigby> |
Steve, nothing gets put on the line: Particulars of Applicant As for the address, just get a physical address of your first hunting outfitter, and that will sufice. The I.D. number is for South African and Namibian residents who have government issued I.D. cards. You would leave that section blank. | ||

mikeh416Rigby  well if they want I can put there the ID NO of my Italia ID card, issued by Italian government OK all this is fantastic, I have already compiled the form, and the last thing that I need is the Namibian Address. bye Stefano Waidmannsheil | |||

The original wasn't coming through, but Mike finally got me a copy (in .jpg format). I cleaned it up the best I could and converted it to a Word Document and sent Mike a copy. Regards, Terry  Msasi haogopi mwiba [A hunter is not afraid of thorns] | |||

Ok, we are cooking with gas now!!! Received a pdf file of the Namibian Firearms Permit (it's not a perfectly clear document - but is better than the other form). I have converted it to Word format. So, if you don't have the pdf one, then probably best to email Mike or me bunduki@sbcglobal.net to receive a copy (let us know if you want it in pdf format or Word format). Regards, Terry Msasi haogopi mwiba [A hunter is not afraid of thorns] | |||

Just a note to say the form is now also available as a pdf file on Vaughan Fulton Classic Safaris website. Go to the Travel Advice page and look for the link. http://www.fultonclassicsafaris.com "There always seems to be a big market for making the clear, complex." | |||

I just got back from Namibia (hunted with Boet Nel - fabulous trip). I had this NAPHA form filled out in advance (got it from Steve at Gracy Travel), and it still didn't do any good. They have me refill out the same information on a different form when I got there. It was the "same" information - but they wouldn't accept their own official form - oh well - that's Africa. As an aside - when we left Namibia, the SAA Airlines people tried to collect $400 US from us because our luggage was "overweight". We were well under the 70lb per suitcase, but they wouldn't budge. We went out to the parking lot and started throwing clothes away to make the 30Kilo limit for domestic travel there. When we got to Afton House, Louis said that's a common ploy to get a bribe. They don't know their own rules. I would suggest that before you go - get online on the SAA website, and print the baggage regulations under "piece concept" and carry it with you. It might help to show them their own information, however, you never know. Jeff | |||

Dear Jeff, Glad you enjoyed your hunt with Boet. As I will be handling your shipment ex Namibia, on your next trip book your luggage all the way through i.e.LAX-ATL-JNB-WDH and return WDH-JNB-ATL and I believe final destination is LAX..... saves you a lot of hassle coste effective also regards Pam Foerster Interational Air CargoServices Tel 011 264 61 255333 Fax 011 61 230700
