Most XSLT processors will avoid outputting redundant namespace declarations, but there is no way of forcing them to do so. What processor are you using and what output are you getting? Why are you using <xsl:element name="{name()}"> rather than <xsl:copy>? There is an important difference: xsl:copy puts the new element in the same namespace as the original, whereas <xsl:element name="{name()}"> looks for a namespace declaration in the stylesheet that has the same namespace prefix as the original name in the source document.
