What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond your arrival date, with at least 2 blank pages
  • Completed arrival visa application form, available at the airport or via the e-visa portal in advance
  • One recent passport-size photo
  • Proof of accommodation (hotel booking or host address)
  • Return or onward flight ticket
  • Proof of sufficient funds for your stay
  • Yellow fever vaccination certificate if arriving from or transiting a country with risk of transmission

Visa types

  • Tourist Visa on Arrival: single entry, valid 30 days, fee approximately USD 50
  • Business Visa on Arrival: for short commercial visits, similar fee, requires a company invitation letter
  • e-Visa (pre-arrival online option via evisa.gov.mz): same validity and fee range, processed before travel to speed up airport arrival
  • Multiple-entry visas and longer-stay permits require application through a Mozambican embassy or the Ministry of Interior

Visa on arrival

  • Arrive at Maputo International Airport or another designated port of entry offering visa-on-arrival services
  • Present your passport, completed arrival form, photo, and proof of accommodation and onward travel at the immigration counter
  • Pay the visa fee in cash (US dollars widely accepted) or by card where available
  • Immigration issues a 30-day single-entry visa stamp directly in your passport
  • Alternatively, apply in advance through evisa.gov.mz to receive pre-approval and reduce airport processing time

Fees & processing time

  • Visa-on-arrival fee: approximately USD 50 for a single-entry tourist visa
  • e-Visa fee (if applied online in advance): similar cost, around USD 50-55 including online processing
  • No separate service center fee for on-arrival applications
  • On-arrival processing time: typically 20-40 minutes depending on airport traffic
  • e-Visa processing time when applied in advance: 3-5 business days

Tips for Algeria travelers

  • Consider applying online via evisa.gov.mz before travel to avoid queues at the airport, especially during peak arrival times
  • Carry US dollars in cash as a backup payment method, since card systems can be unreliable
  • Common issues: missing proof of accommodation, no printed return ticket, expired vaccination certificate if required
  • Since Mozambique has no embassy in Algeria, the e-visa portal or visa on arrival is the most practical route
  • Confirm current yellow fever certificate requirements before travel, as these can change based on regional health advisories
