In Namibia, there are no travel or residency restrictions related to your HIV status. This means that, if you are a foreigner who plans to visit Namibia, you will not be asked for a medical certificate or proof of your HIV status upon entry in the country. Furthermore, you will not be required to be HIV-negative in order to obtain various visas, such as a work visa or student visa. If you test as HIV-positive when you are in Namibia, you will not be deported or expelled from the country either. While there were previously restrictions on foreigners who were HIV-positive, they have been repealed by the government.<ref>[http://hivtravel.org/Default.aspx?PageId=143&CountryId=129 NAMIBIA - REGULATIONS ON ENTRY, STAY AND RESIDENCE FOR PLHIV]</ref> | |||
