Oshakati East is an electoral constituency in the Oshana Region of Namibia. It comprises the eastern parts of the town of Oshakati. The constituency had 22,634 inhabitants in 2004[1] and 19,606 registered voters in 2020.[2]

Oshakati East was created in 1998. Following a recommendation of the Second Delimitation Commission of Namibia, and in preparation of the 1998 general election, the old Oshakati Constituency was split into Oshakati West and Oshakati East.[3] The Okatana River separates the two constituencies.[4]
