The MoHSS is working on the TTS "vacine module" which will enable travellers to upload their Covid-19 vaccination certificates for validation and verification at the country's Points of Entry. Pesons permitted to enter Namibia with vaccination certificates are therefore advised to carry hard copies of their vaccination certificate and not upload them on the TTS. The "Public Notice" further states that persons with domicile status who have been fully vaccinated (valid and authentic vaccination certificate required) can enter Namibia without presenting a negative PCR test.

As of 15 January 2022, all travellers entering Namibia through its thirteen main Ports of Entry are required to have their Covid-19 test results uploaded on the Trusted Travel System (TTS). Once the test results are uploaded on the system, a code will be generated which will then be used at the Port of Entry to verify the Covid-19 test results (see below). The "Trusted Travel System" plattform will used at the following Ports of Entry:

  1. Oshikango Border Post
  2. Walvis Bay International Airport, Walvis Bay
  3. Walvis Bay Harbor
  4. Omahenene Border Post
  5. Hosea Kutako International Airport, Windhoek
  6. Muhembo Border Post

The Trusted Travel System (TT) was introduced by the African Union Council (AUC) and the Africa Centre for Disease Control (Africa-CDC) to support the African Union (AU) member states to harmonize and enhance their current health screening and verification systems. It offers an online digital platform for the verification and authentication of Covid-19 test results based on a collaborative effort across a network of participating Covid-19 testing laboratories and Port Health authorities. The TT platform allows for the detection of counterfeit test results and also enhances cross-border collaboration and confidence in Covid-19 results origination from other countries. Furthermore it provides updated information on entry requirements and travel restrictions for participating member states.

Mozambique: Big cats are back in Zinave National Park!

A female and a male leopard have been introduced into Zinave National Park in the Inhambane Province of Mozambique. The two predators were initially introduced into the 18 600 ha sanctuary established within the National Park, but, as big cats do, they soon ventured further, exploring the surrounding habitat within the greater 408 000 ha protected area. The leopards, which were sourced from Karangani Game Reserve in south-western Mozambique, are the founder animals of what will hopefully become a significant leopard population for the region. The two leopards are being closely monitored by the Endangered Wildlife Trust (EWT) and the staff of Zinave National Park as they settle into the National Park. Tracking data seems to indicate (December 2020) that they are doing well and have already begun to establish new territories.



The extensive rewilding efforts in Zinave National Park, which was ravaged during the Mozambique civil war that ended in 1992 and subsequent poaching, form part of a larger restoration and development programme that has been accelerated under a 20-year co-management agreement signed in 2015 between Mozambique's National Administration for Conservation Areas (ANAC) and the Peace Parks Foundation. About 2 300 mammals from 14 species,  including 200 elephants in 2018 and a clan of four spotted hyenas in 2020 (they have already produced two cubs!), have been since been introduced into Zinave National Park, with wildlife numbers now flourishing to around 6 500 animals.



A nomad male lion has also been seen in Zinave National Park. According to the Peace Parks Foundation, a camera trap recently (December 2022) captured the first known image of a male lion in the National Park for several (four?) decades. The photographed lion is a young adult male estimated at between 4 to 5 years of age, which has probably settled in the Zinave National Park along with his female companion.

Eswatini: The Royal Eswatini National Airways Corporation (RENAC) is at an advanced stage in preparing to launch scheduled regional air services!

RENAC, which is targeting the first half of 2022 to launch, will operate flights between Eswatini's King Mswati III International Airport (SHO) in Sikhuphe and Cape Town International Airport (CPT) in Cape Town, King Shaka International Airport (DUR) in Durban and OR Tambo International Airport (JNB) in Johannesburg in South Africa as well as Robert G. Mugabe International Airport (HRE) in Harare in Zimbabwe. The airline will operate all flights on board its two newly acquired 50-seater Embraer ERJ 145, which were both previously operated by HOP!, a subsidiary of Air France. We'll keep you posted!

The Royal Eswatini National Airways Corporation (RENAC) was established in 1978 as Royal Swazi National Airlines. RENAC is wholly owned by the Government of Eswatini and offers air charter brokerage and airport ground-handling services, supplies jet fuel, and operates the Royal Eswatini Travel Agency (RETA).

South Africa implemented a five-level Covid-19 alert system in April 2020 to manage the gradual easing of the nationwide lockdown, which was introduced on 27 March 2020. This risk-adjusted approach is guided by several criteria, including the level of infections and rate of transmission, the capacity of health facilities, the extent of the implementation of public health interventions and the economic and social impact of continued restrictions. South Africa is currently on Adjusted Alert Level 1 (since 01 October 2022). As of 30 December 2021, the Cabinet of South Africa has decided to make the following changes to Adjusted Alert Level 1 with immediate effect:

  • The curfew has been lifted for now. There are therefore no restrictions on the hours of movement of people.
  • Gatherings are restricted to no more than 1 000 people indoors and no more than 2 000 people outdoors. Where the venue is too small to accommodate these numbers with appropriate social distancing, then no more than 50% of the capacity of the venue may be used. All other restrictions remain in place.
  • Alcohol establishments that have licences to operate beyond 23:00 will revert back to full licence conditions.
