Do I need a visa for Afghanistan from Mozambique?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Mozambican nationals need a consular visa for Afghanistan, to be obtained before departure.
Mozambique has no visa-waiver arrangement with Afghanistan, so Mozambican travellers must build their application in advance, either at the competent Afghan mission or through the official electronic portal depending on their nationality. As precise fees and timelines are not confirmed here, refer to the official source.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. A visa is mandatory for every holder of a Mozambican passport travelling to Afghanistan, including for a short tourist stay. Visa-free entry is not available, and the passport must remain valid for at least six months at the time of application and of entry.
How and where to apply
Afghanistan does not have an embassy in Mozambique, so Mozambican applicants turn to the nearest competent Afghan diplomatic mission, often in a third country, or to the official e-visa portal of Afghanistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Confirm the exact channel with the official source before lodging your file.
Documents and fees
Prepare a passport valid for at least six months, a completed application form, recent passport photos and proof of accommodation or itinerary. As the consular fee is not confirmed here, refer to the official schedule before paying.
Processing and tips
Timelines depend on the mission and the processing tier chosen (standard or express). Plan well ahead, allow for air connections from Maputo, and check health requirements, notably the yellow-fever certificate often requested from travellers departing a risk area. Keep digital copies of the entire file.
Common mistakes
The most common errors are a passport close to expiry, non-compliant photos, and forgetting the yellow-fever vaccination certificate when the itinerary requires it. Do not buy non-refundable tickets before the visa is granted, and do not rely on unofficial third-party sites for fees.
