The Livestock and Livestock Products Board (LLPB) of Namibia has officially announced an annual adjustment to stock brand fees, scheduled to take effect on 1 February 2026.

The fee revision is mandated under the Stock Brand Act (Act 24 of 1995) and follows the provisions set out in Government Notice No. 145 of 2015 and Government Gazette No. 573. According to a communique issued by Dr Anja Boshoff-De Witt, Executive of Quality Assurance at the LLPB, the increases are based on the national inflation rate of 3.4%, as reported in the Bank of Namibia’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) for November 2025.

The new pricing applies to three primary services provided by the Registrar:

• Registration of a Brand: increasing from N$180 to N$186

• Transfer of a Brand: increasing from N$66 to N$68

• Duplicate Certificate of Brand: increasing from N$113 to N$117



Implementation and Compliance

The LLPB, as the mandated administrator of stock brands, has directed all State Veterinary Offices, LLPB regional offices, and agricultural farmers’ unions to implement the updated schedule from the start of February. Livestock agents and associations across the country are also required to comply with the new rates for all brand-related transactions.

Stakeholders seeking further clarification regarding these changes are advised to contact Victor Klazen at the LLPB offices via chfanmeat@nammic.com.na
