Quick answer

Search the Namibia Tourism Board’s official Tour and Safari Operators directory, compare the listed business and registration details with your quotation, and contact the Board if anything does not match.

The Namibia Tourism Board’s public Tour and Safari Operators directory lets visitors search for a business and filter by details such as registration number, town and region. The live directory displays operator records with business contact details and registration references.

Look up the exact company that will deliver your trip, not only the overseas seller or booking agent. Compare the directory result with the business name on your quote, invoice and payment instructions. If the record is missing or inconsistent, ask the operator for its current registration details and verify them with the Board using the Board’s own contact channels.

A directory listing helps confirm an identity; it does not independently promise a particular service, itinerary, vehicle, safety standard or availability. Before paying, get the route, inclusions, cancellation terms, pickup details and the local operator’s contact in writing.

Do not treat a bank account or payment link sent in a message as proof that a business is registered. Confirm payment details through a contact channel you independently verified.

What this means for your trip

Search by the operator’s exact business name or registration number. Match the result to your written itinerary and invoice, then contact the Namibia Tourism Board directly if the details differ or the listing is unclear.

Traveller impact: Checking the business identity and registration details before paying can help travellers spot mismatches between a directory listing, quote and payment request.
