Mozambique: Changes to Short-Term Tourist Visa, New Visa Waiver Program and eVisa System Forthcoming
Mozambique’s government authorities have announced revisions to the short-term tourist visa, transitioning this option to a joint tourist-business visa. The visa validity period will also increase to 90 days, up from 30 days.
Select nationalities will benefit from a new visa waiver program for
tourists and business visitors. Authorities have not yet published an
official list of eligible nationalities or permitted business
activities.
Immigration and tourism ministries will implement a new eVisa
system, which aims to reduce processing times. This system is expected
to cover tourist and business visas, but specific categories have not
yet been released.
These new systems and visa revisions are a part of Mozambique’s
Economic Acceleration Stimulus Package, primarily intended to attract
more investment and tourism to Mozambique.
