Rehoboth (or Basterland) was a Bantustan in South West Africa (present-day Namibia) intended by the apartheid-era government to be a self-governing homeland for the Baster people in the area around the town of Rehoboth.

The Bantustan existed until 29 July 1989, a few months prior to the Independence of Namibia.
