Tips for Germany travelers

  • Carry proof of yellow fever vaccination even for direct flights from Germany, as it may be requested if your itinerary shows transit through an at-risk country
  • Keep small denominations of USD or South African rand on hand for extension fees, as card payment is not always available at migration offices outside Maputo
  • Confirm current entry rules before travel, as Mozambique's visa policy for EU nationals has changed periodically
  • Malaria prophylaxis is strongly recommended in addition to standard travel insurance
