How Much Can Pensioners Claim in Namibia?

Namibia is a developing country, but it is still one of the best places to live and retire. Namibian pensioners are entitled to receive their pension in three ways:

Pensioners can withdraw their pensions from any bank or post office nationwide. They can also request their pensions by email through the Namibian Post Office website at www.postoffice.namibia.com
Pensioners can also collect their pensions in person at any post office branch throughout Namibia where they will be issued with a receipt which they must produce when claiming payments later on at any bank branch as proof that they have already collected their cash payment successfully!
Finally, pensioners can also choose to have their money transferred electronically into an account opened with one of several financial institutions which offer such facilities (find more info about this below).
