OSHAKATI – The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Land Reform on Monday suspended the import of raw bran and milling by-products from Angola for use in animal feed, citing non-compliance with veterinary import requirements.

According to a notice availed to Nampa by the ministry’s directorate of veterinary services on Wednesday, the suspension is in place until further notice, with all previously issued import permits being cancelled.

“The importation of bran and other milling by-products from Angola has been suspended with effect from 05 January 2026 until further notice.

Consequently, all previously issued import permits are hereby cancelled,” it read, noting that this measure is intended to allow the veterinary authorities of both countries to engage and agree on the way forward regarding the importation of these products into Namibia.
