![tourism statistics namibia Launch of Namibia’s Tourism Satellite Account (TSA) 6th Edition Report](https://www.uneca.org/eca-events/sites/default/files/styles/event_detail_image/public/eventimages/wall-banner800x600.jpg?itok=f0oB5soC)
The Ministry of Environment, Forestry and Tourism (MEFT) in conjunction with the Namibia Statistics Agency (NSA) with the financial and technical support from United Nations Economic for Africa (UNECA), has finalized the compilation process of the Namibia’s Tourism Satellite Account (TSA) Report 2022.
The (TSA) report measures the direct economic contribution of tourism to the economy. This report captures comprehensive statistics that will contribute to informed decision-making and strategic planning for the tourism sector.
Tourism Satellite Accounts provide an internationally recognized and standardized method of assessing the scale of tourism related production and its links across different sectors. The Namibia Tourism Satellite Account (TSA) for the year 2022 is a significant development in the field of tourism statistics for Namibia. This publication is the first using the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) methodology and to which Namibia Statistics Agency (NSA) was fully involved, reflecting the commitment to data accuracy, transparency, and the recognition of the importance of the tourism sector in the country’s economy.
The implementation of this TSA is anchored under Strategic Intervention 4 of Namibia's Tourism Sector Recovery Plan (2022-2024), which aims to “increase tourism market intelligence through statistics and data collection." The finalisation of the 6th edition of TSA takes Namibia closer to achieving the above goals and objectives.
The maiden TSA launch is organized through a collaborative arrangement with Government of Namibia/ Ministry of Forestry, Environment and Tourism; Namibia Statistics Agency; the Namibia Resident Coordinator’s Office and United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA).

Namibia - Statistics & Facts
Namibia is situated in Southern Africa, and has a population of approximately 2.3 million people. It is estimated that by 2022, the country’s population will increase to 2.44 million inhabitants. The state capital, Windhoek, is the most populous city in Namibia by far. The high fertility rate, a rise in the population growth over the last years, and a continuous increasing life expectancy, has led to Namibia’s growing population. Due to the improved health and living conditions, life expectancy at birth in the country has increased by almost 10 years between 2005 and 2015. Namibia was a German colony until the World War I, and later became part of South Africa territories until 1988, when South Africa agreed to end its administrative matters in the country. It officially gained its independence in March 1990, when the new constitution came into action. Nowadays, Namibia is a presidential republic divided into 14 regions with English as its official language. In addition, Namibia has 12 other languages that hold the recognized national language status. The largest economic sector is the service industry, which accounts for more than half of the country’s GDP. The mining industry strongly contributes to Namibia’s GDP, the state being one the major countries to contribute to the production of uranium and diamonds globally. In 2016, Namibia produced 3,315 metric tons of uranium, and in 2015, it produced 8.7 percent share of the total value of diamonds produced worldwide, making these two industries the most profitable ones among the mining industries in the country. In 2016, Namibia also exported goods worth about 4.08 billion U.S. dollars, and imported goods worth approximately 6.84 billion U.S. dollars. Over the last decade, Namibia has reported a trade deficit, which reached its peak in 2014. As of 2016, Namibia's trade is still in the red, but recovering slowly.

Tourist inflows up ahead of peak season
![tourism statistics namibia](https://d4f7y6nbupj5z.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/tourist.jpeg)

The tourism sector is set to be one of the biggest economic drivers for 2023, with private sector green hydrogen projects, new aquatic projects such as salmon farming and kelp production at Lüderitz, as well as investments in gas pipelines and mining explorations boosting the tourism industry.
This is according to a Quarterly Economic Review of the first quarter of 2023 by Simonis Storm Securities.
“This is the highest monthly occupancy rate recorded for 2023 thus far. On a monthly basis, national occupancy rates were 11,2 percentage points higher, increasing from 40,7%,” said the analysts.
The year-to-date (YTD) average in 2023 (40,3%) is merely 3,7% short of reaching pre-pandemic levels of 2019 when the YTD average was 44,0%.
According to Simonis, indications are that hotels at Lüderitz and guest houses at Oranjemund are running at higher occupancy rates as a result of oil operations in the area.
At least 22 610 rooms were sold nationally in April 2023, along with 44 482 beds. This is 65% lower compared to 65 449 rooms sold in April 2019.
The gap between the change in rooms and occupancy rates can be explained by fewer tourism facilities available, as some of them were forced to shut down due to the pandemic lockdown.
The central area of Namibia recorded the lowest occupancy rate in April 2023, at 37,3%, from the highest the previous month of 52,7%.
This month, the coastal area had the highest occupancy rate of 58,1% (18,4 percentage points higher than the prior month), followed by the northern area at 56,0% (21,5 percentage points higher than the prior month) and the southern area at 49,3% (8,2 percentage points higher than March 2023).
According to statistics, leisure tourism continues to be the main driver of tourist inflows, accounting for 98,3% of visitors in April 2023, while business travellers accounted for 1,7% and conference attendees accounted for 0,02%.
As usual, the majority of visitors during April 2023 came from Germany, Austria and Switzerland at 41,0%. Locals came second highest in occupancy rates of 18,6%, South Africans (8,3%) and the French (6,8%).
According to the Hospitality Association of Namibia (HAN), the growth in the portion of visitors from Namibia’s main tourist source markets (Germany, Austria and Switzerland) is partly due to the availability of 10 direct flights each week between Windhoek and Frankfurt.
The inflows from Europe picked up in January of this year and has been on an upward trend since then.
Locals are occupying fewer of the rooms due to straining economic conditions. Indeed, accommodation services became 15,7% more expensive in April 2023 compared to April 2019, while accommodation services inflation stood at 6,7% year-on-year (y/y) and food inflation at 13,5%, which are above headline inflation of 6,1% y/y in April 2023.
This implies that locals are limited in spending on accommodation as disposable incomes are strained by higher food prices, among other living costs.
According to NSA data, since April 2019, hotel, café and restaurant prices have increased by 16,9%, driven by both catering rising 18,0% and accommodation services up by 15,7%. – email: [email protected]

Namibia has a unique mix of wildlife, spectacular scenery, and diverse cultures. Natural attractions include the Namib Desert, which is the oldest desert in the world; the Fish River Canyon, which is the second-largest canyon in the world after the Grand Canyon; the world-famous sand dunes at Sossusvlei; the Skeleton Coast with its extraordinary landscapes; and Etosha National Park, one of the largest game reserves in Africa. Coupled with its natural beauty, Namibia’s good road infrastructure, potable water, and lower levels of crime than most of its neighboring countries make it an ideal destination for tourists.
According to local economic think tank Simonis Storm, travel and tourism contributed approximately 12 percent of GDP in Namibia, and 5.7 percent to total employment in 2022. Excluding neighboring African countries, the United States represents Namibia’s third-largest tourist market (behind Germany and the United Kingdom). Many American tourists visit as part of package tours. American game hunters are a growing and important segment for Namibian tourism operators.
Leading Sub-Sectors
- Hospitality, restaurant, hotel management and training
- Packaged tour services, especially in niche segments
- Information technology solutions for the hospitality industry
- Specialized equipment for remote (off-grid) lodging
Opportunities
Firms interested in sending tourists to Namibia should seek partnering opportunities with local operators. Firms may wish to focus on specific niches. Niche tourism opportunities include:
· Wildlife safaris – Etosha National Park and other parks offer world class safaris with upscale lodging both inside and near the parks.
· Hunting tours – Namibia has a well-developed game and trophy hunting sector.
· Cultural / Educational tours – Namibia is an excellent location for tourists interested in learning about the cultural anthropology of Southern Africa. Tours are available for people interested in learning more about the San, Herero, Himba, Oshiwambo, Nama, Damara, and other Namibian ethnic groups. Some tourists look for educational experiences and want to learn about Namibia’s unique climate and geography (including its two world famous deserts, the Kalahari and Namib).
· Adventure tours – Many travelers enjoy the unique adventure opportunities (sand boarding, kite surfing, sky diving, quad biking, mountain biking, hiking, camping, etc.) which Namibia offers. There are a number of endurance race events (running, biking, and mixed sports) hosted in Namibia.
· Ecotourism – Increasingly, tourists want to stay at destinations that have minimum impact on (or blend in with the) the environment. Lodging and tour companies are increasingly catering to this market.
Firms interested in developing partnerships should consider attending the annual Namibia Tourism Expo, held in May/June of each year.
Operators (tour/transport companies, hotels, and restaurants) will increasingly need information technology solutions that will allow them to better control costs and understand their customers’ demands. While there are some larger tour operators and lodging companies providing state of the art information technology solutions, the Namibian tourism market is still highly fragmented with many small operators. Most small operators only have a limited Internet presence. Companies that can provide cost effective internet-based marketing and booking solutions could find willing customers in Namibia.
Growth in the tourism sector is also fueling development and construction of new lodging in both urban and remote areas. Partnering for construction jobs might be a possibility for U.S. firms, but it will likely be difficult for U.S. firms to win construction contracts as there are many qualified local and South African firms. Chinese construction firms have also penetrated the Namibian construction market in recent years. There are opportunities for firms that can provide specialized eco-friendly equipment and supplies – water and sanitation, energy, hygiene, etc. – for new lodges in remote areas. Existing lodges that are expanding or rehabilitating may also be looking for these types of equipment.
