Discover visa requirements for your trip
Mozambican nationals need a visa before travelling to Albania for tourism. The application is filed in advance, as this passport has no visa-free entry.
Travellers from Mozambique are not covered by Albania's visa waiver, so a short-stay tourist visa is required. Applications go to the Albanian embassy accredited to Maputo or through the official e-Visa portal of Albania's Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs. With no Albanian embassy in Mozambique, files usually route via a regional mission or the online channel.
Is a visa required?
Yes. A Mozambican passport does not permit visa-free entry to Albania, tourism included, so a short-stay visa must be obtained before departure. Confirm the permitted length of stay and visa validity with the official source before booking.
How and where to apply
Two paths: the Albanian e-Visa portal (e-visa.al) for an online application, or the Albanian embassy/consulate whose jurisdiction covers Maputo, often an accredited regional mission. With no Albanian post in Mozambique, first confirm the responsible consular jurisdiction before sending documents.
Documents and fees
Prepare a passport valid at least 6 months beyond your planned entry, a completed form, recent photos, proof of accommodation, an itinerary and evidence of funds. The visa fee is not confirmed here; check the official tariff on e-albania.al or with the embassy before paying.
Processing and tips
Processing time varies by channel and is not guaranteed, so allow several weeks. Have documents translated if the embassy requires it and check health requirements, including yellow fever, which is often requested of travellers departing Mozambique. Keep a digital copy of the complete file.
Common mistakes
Do not count on a visa on arrival, which is not assured for Mozambicans. Avoid a passport with insufficient validity and unconfirmed bookings. A missing yellow-fever certificate, or a file sent to the wrong consulate, causes delays and refusals.
