Official evidence timeline

One group agreement or destination policy can support many passport relationships. Dates are recorded only when an official source establishes them.

  1. Current official routeVisa-free

    Mozambique: longstanding all-passport visa-exemption partners

    Both the live immigration portal and the Foreign Ministry identify these nationalities as exempt from a visa for qualifying short visits.

    • The live portal permits the stated ordinary-passport tourist or business stay without an eTA or eVisa: 90 days for Botswana and Tanzania, and 30 days for the other listed nationalities.
    • The Foreign Ministry describes these as all-passport bilateral visa-suppression agreements.
    • Ordinary-passport short tourism or business visits only; work, residence, study, crew, transit, diplomatic, official, service, refugee, emergency and other special-document cases are outside this policy.
    • Admission remains subject to passport validity, travel-purpose, supporting-document, health, security and border-control requirements; an approval or exemption does not guarantee entry.

  2. Current official routeVisa-free

    Mozambique: additional current ordinary-passport visa exemptions

    The live immigration portal lists these ordinary or all-passport nationalities as visa-exempt for qualifying short tourist or business visits.

    • The live portal lists 30 days for Angola, Cabo Verde, Lesotho, Namibia, São Tomé and Príncipe, Seychelles and Uganda, and 90 days for Kenya and Rwanda.
    • The Foreign Ministry's separate current entry-visas page still publishes only eight longstanding all-passport agreements and omits this expanded cohort. The live National Immigration Service eligibility table is treated as the current operational rule, but this official-source discrepancy warrants rechecking.
    • Ordinary-passport short tourism or business visits only; work, residence, study, crew, transit, diplomatic, official, service, refugee, emergency and other special-document cases are outside this policy.
    • Admission remains subject to passport validity, travel-purpose, supporting-document, health, security and border-control requirements; an approval or exemption does not guarantee entry.

  3. Current official routeETA

    Mozambique: eTA required before travel

    The live immigration portal requires these nationalities to obtain an electronic travel authorisation before qualifying short tourist or business travel.

    • The eTA permits up to 30 days for tourist or business purposes and applies to all passport types in the published table; this policy models the ordinary-passport component.
    • The applicant must apply online, pay the fee and carry the approved preliminary eTA PDF for boarding and arrival.
    • An eVisa is needed instead if the permitted ETA duration or purpose does not cover the trip.
    • Ordinary-passport short tourism or business visits only; work, residence, study, crew, transit, diplomatic, official, service, refugee, emergency and other special-document cases are outside this policy.
    • Admission remains subject to passport validity, travel-purpose, supporting-document, health, security and border-control requirements; an approval or exemption does not guarantee entry.

  4. Current official routeeVisa

    Mozambique: advance electronic visa route

    The live immigration portal includes these ordinary-passport nationalities in Mozambique's electronic-visa scheme for qualifying visits.

    • The tourist eVisa covers tourism, holidays or vacations of 90 days or less; other published electronic-visa purposes have their own requirements.
    • The applicant must apply and pay online before travel, then carry the approved preliminary eVisa PDF for boarding and arrival.
    • The physical visa may be finalized at the border, but prior electronic approval is mandatory, so this is normalized as eVisa rather than visa on arrival.
    • Ordinary-passport short tourism or business visits only; work, residence, study, crew, transit, diplomatic, official, service, refugee, emergency and other special-document cases are outside this policy.
    • Admission remains subject to passport validity, travel-purpose, supporting-document, health, security and border-control requirements; an approval or exemption does not guarantee entry.

    Mozambique: embassy visa required before travel

    The live immigration portal says these nationalities cannot use its eVisa service and must request a visa from the nearest embassy.

    • The traveller must obtain the appropriate visa through a Mozambique embassy before travel; nationality alone does not establish an electronic or arrival route.
    • Ordinary-passport short tourism or business visits only; work, residence, study, crew, transit, diplomatic, official, service, refugee, emergency and other special-document cases are outside this policy.
    • Admission remains subject to passport validity, travel-purpose, supporting-document, health, security and border-control requirements; an approval or exemption does not guarantee entry.
