Mozambique's National Immigration Service has released the complete list of African countries whose nationals qualify for the electronic visa (eVisa) scheme in 2026. The list includes a broad range of nations across the continent, facilitating streamlined entry for tourism and business purposes.
Eligible African Countries
The following African countries are eligible for the Mozambique eVisa: Algeria, Angola, Benin, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cabo Verde (Cape Verde), Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Congo (Republic of the Congo), Côte d'Ivoire, Democratic Republic of the Congo (including DR Congo), Djibouti, Egypt, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Eswatini (including Swaziland), Gabon, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Lesotho, Liberia, Libya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Mauritania, Mauritius, Morocco, Mozambique, Namibia, Niger, Rwanda, São Tomé and Príncipe, Senegal, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, South Africa, South Sudan, Sudan, Tanzania, Togo, Tunisia, Uganda, Western Sahara, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
Scope of the eVisa
The eVisa covers not only standard tourist and business visits but also travelers who intend to stay longer than the visa-exempt period or require a different visa category. According to the official Mozambique eVisa portal, nationals from qualifying countries must use the eVisa system to regularize their entry if their stay exceeds the permitted duration or if they need a visa type beyond tourism or business.
How to Apply
Eligible travelers can submit applications through the official Mozambique eVisa portal. The portal also serves nationals from countries under the Electronic Travel Authorisation program, offering a digital alternative to embassy or consulate visits.
Related Developments
In a related story, Mozambique previously barred six countries from using its eVisa portal in 2026. Additionally, the country released a list of African nations whose citizens can enter without a visa for tourism and business, with varying permitted lengths of stay by nationality. These measures aim to boost tourism, business travel, and regional integration.
