This Serves to inform the airport transit privileges of Namibian passport holders at specific German airports, as received by the Embassy of the Republic of Germany:

All Namibian passport holders have an airport transit privilege and therefore do not require an airport transit visa (category A) for transiting at the following German airports:

• Frankfurt / Main
• Munich
• Hamburg (04h30 – 23h30 only)
• Düsseldorf (06h00 – 21h00 only), and if the airline has arranged the transit beforehand with the authorities responsible for cross-border security (the Federal Police)
• Berlin-Brandenburg

HOWEVER, TAKE NOTE: If Namibian Official Passport Holder and Namibian Ordinary Passport Holder have to enter the Schengen area during a stopover, for example to change terminals at another German airport or if the destination is in a Schengen country, a transit visa is required.  Therefore, a transit visa is required when travelling to / transiting two Schengen entry areas.
