Namibian Court Recognizes Foreign Same-Sex Marriages performed abroad (web.archive.org)

The ruling is a victory for Namibians and their foreign spouses, who risked deportation and the denial of benefits when their marriages were not recognized by the state. The litigation was brought by two binational couples, one married in Germany and another married in South Africa, who had settled in Namibia. The foreign spouses were denied residency permits, which did not recognize them as a “spouse.”
