Pay €29 and have my application checkedOur guide to the Afghanistan visa from Mozambique
Yes. To enter Afghanistan, citizens of Mozambique must hold a visa obtained in advance from the embassy or consulate of Afghanistan responsible for their place of residence, or from the application centre the mission designates.
Before booking a trip to Afghanistan, travellers from Mozambique should allow time for a visa application with the competent Afghan mission. The appointment, form, photos and supporting documents need to be prepared in advance, and the mission itself communicates its fees and processing times.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. Holders of a passport from Mozambique must apply for a visa before leaving for Afghanistan. The process goes through the competent embassy or consulate of Afghanistan, or the application centre it designates, and the file is examined under that mission’s rules. Plan this step early when organising the trip.
How much does a visa for Afghanistan cost from Mozambique?
The official fee for a visa for Afghanistan is not published in a source we can verify. Check the amount on the official portal before paying anything, third-party sites often add service fees on top.
What does a visa for Afghanistan really cost?
The published fee is the government charge alone. Two or three other lines are added before the visa is in the passport, and they are what makes the final bill.
- Government feeNot published in a source we can verify
Paid to the state, non-refundable if the visa is refused.
- Application centre feeVariable, set by the operator
Only when the post uses an external centre. The amount is set locally and we do not publish a figure we cannot verify.
- Agency or online serviceOptional, added on top
Never compulsory. An intermediary fills the form for you, it does not change the decision or the processing time.
- ExtrasVariable
Courier return, SMS tracking, compliant photo, insurance, sworn translation or legalisation, depending on what the post requires.
We only display amounts published by an official source. Confirm the total before paying anything.
What documents are required for a visa for Afghanistan?
The exact list for Afghanistan is not published in a source we can verify. Every short-stay tourist application is nonetheless built on the same core:
- Valid passport
- Completed application form
- Compliant passport photo
- Proof of accommodation
- Return or onward ticket
- Proof of sufficient funds
Treat this as the common core, not the official list, confirm it with the consular authorities of Afghanistan before you apply.
Documents and fees
Plan to bring your passport, the duly completed application form, passport photos meeting the mission’s requirements, and proof of accommodation, financial means and insurance covering the stay. Depending on the purpose of the trip, other documents may be required. The amount of the visa fee and how to pay it are communicated by the Afghan mission: ask for them before lodging the file.
How to apply for a visa for Afghanistan from Mozambique
- 1Book an appointment at the embassy, consulate or visa application centre.
- 2Assemble the complete file before the appointment.
- 3Submit the file and provide your biometric data.
- 4Track the processing and wait for the decision.
- 5Collect your passport with the visa sticker.
How to apply
Start by identifying the Afghan mission responsible for your place of residence, which may be located in another country. Contact it to learn the current procedure, including how to book an appointment, which application form to complete and how to hand in your passport. Then attend the appointment with your complete file and follow the mission’s instructions for collecting your passport with the visa.
Where do you apply for a visa for Afghanistan from Mozambique?
A consular visa for Afghanistan is filed with the diplomatic post accredited for Mozambique, or with the application centre that post has appointed.
- The competent post is the one accredited for Mozambique, which is not always the nearest one geographically.
- An application centre collects the file and the biometrics. It does not decide, it cannot speed up a case, and it is not an agency.
- Appointments are booked with the post or the centre directly. A slot is never sold, and no one can guarantee one.
What if Afghanistan has no embassy in Mozambique?
Then the application goes to the post accredited for Mozambique, often in a neighbouring capital, or to a state acting on its behalf. Confirm which post is competent with the official source before travelling to a third country to apply, a rejected file at the wrong counter costs the trip and the fee.
You live in Mozambique on another passport?
The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Mozambique but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

How long does a visa for Afghanistan take?
No verified processing time is published for this route. Apply as early as your travel dates allow, and never book non-refundable travel before the visa is granted.
Processing times and tips
Leave a comfortable margin between lodging the file and your travel date, as processing times are not guaranteed and vary from one mission to another. Wait until the visa has been issued before buying tickets or booking non-refundable accommodation. As conditions can change, check them with the mission just before applying.
Before you fly, and at the border
- Passport validity: most countries require the passport to stay valid beyond the return date, and the margin required differs from one destination to the next. Check it on the official source, and count from your return, not from your departure.
- A visa is not a right of entry. The border officer decides, and may ask for a return ticket, an address or proof of funds even when everything is in order.
- Conditional exemptions exist: several countries waive the visa for holders of a valid visa or residence permit from a third country. This depends on the destination and on the document, and we do not publish that rule when our sources do not carry it. The official page does.
- Minors travelling alone or with one parent are often asked for extra papers, typically a parental authorisation and the family record. Ask the post before booking.
- Overstaying is not a formality. It exposes you to a fine, to removal, and to an entry ban that can outlast the trip by years, including for the whole area when the destination belongs to one.
Common mistakes
Turning up at the appointment with an incomplete file may mean coming back, which lengthens the whole process. Other common mistakes are buying tickets too early, using photos that do not meet the required format and confusing the validity of the visa with the length of stay it allows. Check the visa as soon as you receive it to confirm these details.
