Discover visa requirements for your trip
Swedish nationals must obtain an electronic visa (e-Visa) before travelling to Mozambique. The application is made online through the official portal ahead of departure.
Swedish travellers heading to Maputo, the Island of Mozambique or the Indian Ocean beaches fall under Mozambique's e-Visa scheme. The permit is issued through the government portal, and some entry points may also grant a visa on arrival. The Swedish passport must be valid for at least six months.
Do you need a visa?
Yes: a Swedish citizen needs authorisation to enter Mozambique. The e-Visa, applied for online before the trip, is the recommended solution. A visa on arrival may be offered at some posts, but it is safer not to rely on it.
How and where to apply
Applications are made on the official portal evisa.gov.mz, with no embassy appointment. You open a file, enter your itinerary and upload the required documents. Payment is completed online.
Documents and fees
Prepare a Swedish passport valid for six months, a photo, proof of accommodation and a return ticket. A yellow-fever vaccination certificate may be required depending on your routing. The fee must be checked on the official portal when you apply.
Processing and tips
Processing time varies, so submit your application well ahead to avoid delay. Save the e-Visa confirmation and present it at check-in and then at immigration. Make sure your details match your passport exactly.
Common mistakes
The main mistake is relying on a visa on arrival when the e-Visa is safer and sometimes required at boarding. Avoid third-party sites that add fees and use only the official portal. Overlooking the yellow-fever question can also cause problems on entry.
