🌐Why Namibia passport holders do not need a visa for Botswana

Namibia passport holders can enter Botswana without a visa because of an existing bilateral visa-waiver agreement or diplomatic arrangement between the two countries. This means Namibia citizens benefit from streamlined entry and do not need to apply in advance — a valid passport is sufficient at the border.
