Business Visas in Mozambique

For meetings, negotiations and site visits — obtained correctly, so you are not turned away at Mavalane.

Passport and visa documents on a desk

What it permits

Business visas cover meetings, negotiations, market research, conferences and inspections. They do not cover remunerated work or provision of services under contract, which requires work authorisation.

Invitations matter

A well-drafted invitation from a registered Mozambican entity, with NUIT and registration details, is the single strongest element of the application.

Frequently asked questions

Can I convert to a work visa in country?

Conversion is restricted. In most cases the correct route is a fresh application aligned to the intended activity.

How long can I stay?

Permitted stay per entry and total days per period are set by the visa issued. We confirm your specific conditions in writing.
