In Namibia, voter registration takes place under 1992 Electoral Act. An amendment of the Act of 1994 introduced continuous and special phases of supplementary registration. https://aceproject.org/ero-en/regions/africa/NA/namibia-electoral-act-1992/view
Comment
The law stipulates that a new voters register be created every ten years through a General Registration of Voters (GRV). The GRV has been held in 1993, 2003 and 2014.
