India and Namibia enjoy warm and cordial relations. The Namibian people and leadership view India as a dependable and trusted friend. Indian support during their liberation struggle is warmly recalled by Namibian leaders, according to the Indian High Commission in Namibia statement. India was among the first nations to raise the question of Namibian independence in the UN.

After Namibian independence, the Indian Observer Mission was upgraded to a full-fledged High Commission on 21 March 1990. Namibia opened a full-fledged resident Mission in New Delhi in March 1994, according to the statement.

The 4th round of India-Namibia Foreign Office Consultations took place in Windhoek in 2022. During the meeting, the two nations conducted a comprehensive review of the existing bilateral relations. (ANI)
