🇲🇿 Mozambique Visa Procedures

Turkish citizens are required to obtain a visa for travel to Mozambique regardless of passport type (Ordinary/Bordo, Special/Green, Service/Grey, or Diplomatic/Black). With the 2023 regulation, only certain categories of diplomatic passport holders may benefit from limited visa exemptions.

Since there is no Embassy or Consulate of Mozambique in Türkiye, all visa applications are processed through the Embassy of Mozambique in Rome, which is accredited to Türkiye. Once the application file and required documents are sent to the Embassy in Rome, the evaluation process begins.

For travel to Mozambique, short-term and long-term visas differ depending on the purpose of stay. Tourist, business, or family visit trips require short-term visas, while education, work, or residence purposes require long-term visas.

🏝 Types of Mozambique Visas

The main visa categories for Mozambique are:

  • Mozambique Tourist Visa
  • Mozambique Business Visa
  • Mozambique Family/Friend Visit Visa
  • Mozambique Transit Visa

For short-term visas, applicants must hold a biometric passport issued within the last 10 years, valid for at least 6 months beyond the return date, with at least 2 blank pages for visa stamps.

📌 Mozambique Visa on Arrival

Mozambique offers a visa-on-arrival facility for foreign nationals. This option is available particularly at Maputo International Airport. However, it applies only to short-term tourist visas and is subject to approval by Mozambican authorities. Travelers must complete all pre-travel requirements, including submission of flight and passport details, before arrival.

📝 How Long Does It Take to Get a Mozambique Visa?

Once the application documents are delivered to the Embassy in Rome, Mozambique visa applications are usually finalized within 10 business days. However, courier delivery times, embassy workload, or additional document requests may extend the process. To avoid disruptions in travel plans, it is strongly recommended to start the application at least 45 days prior to departure.

🕒 Health Requirements

Health precautions are an important part of traveling to Mozambique. The Yellow Fever vaccination is mandatory and must be administered at least 10 days before travel. In addition, Hepatitis A, Meningitis, and Tetanus vaccinations are strongly recommended. Proof of vaccination may be checked upon entry.

📌 Mozambique Visa Fees

Visa fees for Mozambique vary depending on the applicant’s age, purpose of travel, duration of stay, and any additional services requested. For up-to-date visa fees and the full list of required documents, please contact Marsel Visa.

❌ Mozambique Visa Refusal

The approval or refusal of visa applications is entirely at the discretion of Mozambican authorities. In case of refusal, the official refusal notice should be kept, as it may be required for future applications. When reapplying, the reasons for the previous refusal should be carefully addressed to improve the chances of approval.
