Namibia plans to raise its mining tax to 44 percent from 37.5 percent but said the hike will not apply to diamond mining companies, the ministry of finance said in a statement on Friday.
The ministry said the country is facing volatility in its key revenue sources and is looking to strengthen revenue collection.
