Both the FIA and FIM recognise only one National Federation in each country, with such Federation in turn being responsible for the control and administration of the sport in its own country. In Namibia, the FIA and FIM have transferred their sporting powers to the Namibian Motorsport Federation (NMSF) and all motor sporting events in the country are held in accordance with FIA and FIM Sporting Codes.
The Namibia Sports Commission also recognize the NMSF as the governing body for all motorsport in Namibia.
