MOZAMBIQUE INCREASES TOURIST PERMIT FEES
International travellers require a visa for Mozambique which can be purchased on arrival into Mozambique and paid for in US$ cash. The visa cost has increased to US$82 per person (subject to change). An additional US$2.50 stamp duty applies for entrance and exit, so we advise clients should be in possession of US$90 cash per person.
South African passport holders do not require a visa to enter Mozambique.
For entrance back into South Africa, two empty pages are needed in passports (front and back pages both blank).
