Japanese used cars for Namibia
Restricted used-vehicle policy. Permit first, then Walvis Bay.
Namibia is RHD. Like South Africa, used passenger-car imports are not freely open for commercial resale. Expect an import permit and roadworthy process. Returning residents and special vehicles are the usual legal paths.
KMC JAPAN will not treat Namibia as a Zambia-style open age market. Confirm the current Ministry of Industrialisation / NamRA position in writing before you buy. Walvis Bay is the car port; some cargo still lands Durban and roads north.
