[[File:Tsumeb Railway.JPG|thumb|[[Otavi Mining and Railway Company]] train near Tsumeb about 1931.  The photograph must have been taken in winter, as the trees have no leaves. Despite the fact that Tsumeb is in the tropics, it is well over a thousand metres [[Above mean sea level|above sea level]] and frosty in winter.]]

The main road leads north, to [[Ondangwa]] and onwards to [[Oshakati]] and [[Angola]]. To the north-east a newly constructed Bituminous Road towards [[Tsintsabis]] leads to Katwitwi Border Post and [[Angola]].  To the east, through [[Grootfontein]], the road leads towards  [[Rundu]] and [[Katima Mulilo]] and to the south, through [[Otavi]] to [[Otjiwarongo]] and [[Windhoek]].

Tsumeb is connected to the national railway network operated by [[TransNamib]].  Tsumeb was for most of the 20th century the terminus of the line but in recent times the track has been extended a further 260 km to reach [[Ondangwa]].  There have been talks of extending the line to [[Oshikango]] and having the Government of Angola build a railroad from the north to connect the two countries together. The junction for the [[Ondangwa]] line is located at the "wrong end" of [[Tsumeb railway station]], leaving it a dead end, though a second triangle is provided for through trains to bypass the station.

[[Tsumeb Airport]] is an airstrip east of town.
