Air Namibia (Pty) Limited is a proprietary limited company incorporated in accordance with the Company’s Act of the Republic of Namibia. Air Namibia is the national airline of the Republic of Namibia, with the Government of the Republic of Namibia as its sole Shareholder.
Air Namibia’s mandate was determined by its Shareholder, represented by the Ministry of Finance and later on Transport, to be a major contributor towards the attraction and promotion of tourism, as well as promotion and facilitation of trade to Namibia by providing air transport, cargo, Charter and freight services between Namibia and other countries, as well as by operating flights within the boundaries of Namibia.
Air Namibia makes a positive net economic (value) contribution to the national economy, in line with its mandate.

According to the same report, the value added to the Namibian National economy directly from traffic carried by Air Namibia during the same period is N$ 903 million (2005). With a 15% increase per year, the amount is estimated to be around N$ 1.2 billion (2007), while the amount of money allocated to the airline through budgetary allocations of the Government was only N$150 million.
