Ariamsvlei is a settlement of about 500 people in the ǁKaras Region of southern Namibia and a border post between Namibia and South Africa, located {{convert|110|km|abbr=on}} east of Karasburg on the national B3 road. It lies at {{Convert|804|m|ft}} above sea level.

The border post with South Africa lies {{convert|1.2|km|yd}} to the east of the settlement; however, the actual border (at the 20th meridian east) lies {{convert|15.3|km|abbr=on}} further east along the B3, near the South African settlement of Nakop. South Africa's border post (also named Nakop) is located a further {{convert|1.3|km|yd|abbr=on}} away.

Ariamsvlei is an important rest stop for long-distance trucks, and a railway stop on the line between Windhoek and Upington. It belongs to the Karasburg electoral constituency.{{cite news
