The payment of TV licence is a legal obligation. Failure to comply may result in prosecution. The Namibian Broadcasting Act No. 9 of 1991 spells out the consequences of non-compliance, which include (upon conviction) the imposition of a fine and/or imprisonment as well as the confiscation by the State of any television set in connection with or by means of which the offence was committed. Further measures at the disposal of the nbc are the switching off of decoders and blacklisting.
TV licence payments can be made at any nbc office, NamPost or Nictus branch. Payments can also be made via direct deposits or EFTs. The nbc banking details for TV licences are as follows:
Bank: First National Bank of Namibia
Corporate Branch, Windhoek
Name: NBC TV Licence
Code: 281872
Acc. No.: 620 611 996 02
The nbc TV Licence department would like to express its gratitude to all paid-up TV set owners who have conscientiously renewed their licence(s) for many, many years.
