About the Namibian Dollar
The Namibian dollar was introduced in 1993, three years after independence from South Africa in 1990, replacing the South African rand as the country's own currency. It remains pegged 1:1 to the rand as part of the Common Monetary Area, and the rand continues to circulate freely as legal tender throughout Namibia alongside the local dollar, reflecting the two economies' close and continuing integration.
