What do I need to know before moving to Windhoek?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Windhoek, they said...

"Windhoek is the capital of Namibia and is a great place for expats to live. It is a safe and friendly city with a diverse population. Expats should be aware that the cost of living in Windhoek is relatively high, so it is important to budget accordingly. English is widely spoken in Windhoek, but the official language is Afrikaans. Expats should also be aware that the climate in Windhoek is semi-arid, with hot summers and cool winters. It is important to dress appropriately for the weather. Finally, expats should be aware that Namibia is a visa-free country for most nationalities, but it is important to check the visa requirements before travelling," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Windhoek, Namibia.
