Relevant contents

Since 1992, the police, through a variety of campaigns, have sought to encourage members of the public to surrender unlicenced firearms. Generally, if an individual surrenders a firearm, then they will not be charged for the possession of an illegal firearm. However, these individuals are not provided with financial compensation.

The Namibian Defence Force destroys illegal weapons and ammunition. Ammunition is destroyed at the military's ammunition destruction facility near Walvis Bay which has been in operation since June 2003. Firearms are destroyed by being cut up.
