Is there an exception to the standard membership documentation requirements?
Yes. The primary exception applies to individuals who are married to a Namibian or SADC citizen.
In these cases, a valid marriage certificate, together with the required identification documents, may be accepted as proof of eligibility in accordance with the Namibian Domicile Act.
If you are applying on this basis and are unsure which supporting documents to provide, our team will gladly assist you.
How long is my Gondwana Membership valid?
A standard Gondwana Membership is valid for five (5) years from the date of approval.
If your membership is based on a temporary government-issued permit (such as a work, study or residence permit), your membership will be valid only for the duration of that permit. Once the permit expires, so does the associated membership.
Example: If your work permit is valid for three months, your Gondwana Membership will also be valid for three months. You are welcome to renew your membership once your permit has been extended or renewed, provided you continue to meet the eligibility requirements.
Is it possible to make a group booking with my Gondwana Membership?
The Gondwana Membership discount is offered on an individual basis only. So, when making a group booking, you must provide each person’s valid Gondwana Membership number to receive the Gondwana member discount for everyone.
In other words, you cannot use your personal Gondwana membership to obtain discounts for other travellers.
Registered companies become eligible for 20% discount on bed and breakfast accommodation bookings. No additional discounts are received on meals or activities.
