There is no general requirement to have imported goods marked with an indication of the country of origin. However, restriction orders made under the Merchandise Marks Act, 1931, prohibit the importation of certain descriptions of goods unless they bear an indication of origin. I understand that the descriptions of goods featuring in trade with Namibia are not within the scope of any of these orders.
