The registry recognises the foreign applicant category explicitly in its own procedures. The relevant clause of the accreditation document splits registrars into «Namibian Applicants» and «Foreign Applicants» and provides for a separate account for each; prospective foreign registrars are directed to a separate e-mail address. Names held through corporate registrars based in Europe and North America are present in the zone today. Your registrar will confirm the exact conditions at the point of registration.

This needs saying plainly: the registry publishes no registrant-facing eligibility text. Its website carries exactly three documents, all addressed to registrars — the accreditation procedure, the registrar agreement and the Acceptable Use Policy. The last of these binds registrants directly and states in its fourth clause: «This AUP is in addition to rules governing qualifications for registration.» The qualification rules therefore exist but have not been made public; you learn the conditions from your registrar's agreement.

Only through an accredited registrar. The registry puts this in two sentences on its site: anyone wishing to register a name should look for a registrar accredited for .na, and the registry «does not engage with (prospective) Applicants»; existing registrants are asked to take every matter up with their own registrar. The registrar agreement provides a counterweight, however: registrars are obliged to establish procedures that let their customers change registrar freely, without interruption in the use of the assigned name.

By default no. The registry has no WHOIS server on port 43; the IANA record points instead to an RDAP endpoint. In the responses from that endpoint the registrant and administrative contact objects come back marked «REDACTED FOR PRIVACY»: the name, organisation and address lines are masked and only the country code is visible. The registrar's own details, by contrast, are published in full. Privacy here is therefore not a paid add-on but the register's default behaviour.

Yes, and this was measured at three layers at once. A measurement on 13 August 2026 found a DS record for .na in the root zone and a separate DS record for .com.na inside the .na zone; in addition, one domain under .com.na comes back from the registry's RDAP endpoint as having a signed delegation. That third measurement is the decisive one: a zone being signed and a registrant being able to sign their own name are two different things, and here the second was confirmed as well.

The Acceptable Use Policy governs this and its reach is wide. Use that contravenes the policy may lead to suspension or revocation of the registrant's right to use the name, and the sanction may extend beyond the name that gave rise to a complaint to other names held by the same registrant. Prohibited uses include infringement of copyright, design rights, patents and trade marks, using a name to unlawfully disrupt another's business, intentionally creating a likelihood of confusion, and blocking registrations against a party with superior rights.

Yes, and the right is guaranteed by contract. The relevant clause of the registrar agreement places this duty on registrars: to establish procedures that permit their customers to freely change registrars without interruption in use of the assigned domain name. The same agreement notes that there is no limit on the number of registrars the registry may accredit. In practice, whether your name carries a transfer lock is your own choice; you can start the process on the domain transfer page.

The route sits inside the use policy and is referred outwards. The relevant clause states that the registry or affected parties may use the Complaint Resolution Services of the Council of Country Code Administrators (CoCCA) to resolve disputes over the interpretation and implementation of the policy. Namibian law applies, and the operation of the extension falls within Namibian jurisdiction. The policy also defines, point by point, confusion with marks registered in Namibia, bad-faith registration and blocking registrations.
