Primary records first
Namibia licence and legal checks
The Gaming and Entertainment Control Act 2018 creates the current framework and licence categories. A brand claim or foreign licence is not a Namibia domain match.
1. Exact domain
Record the hostname after every redirect. Similar domains cannot share a verdict automatically.
2. Responsible operator
Find the legal company in the terms, privacy notice and payment descriptor.
3. Current local record
Ask the Gambling Board to confirm that company and exact domain under a current licence.
A green signal is reserved for a current primary Namibia record matching all three. None of the 13 shell files met that threshold in this collection pass.
