Documents you will usually need

• Standard application set (passport scan, photo, return ticket)
• Confirmed onward air ticket departing Mozambique within transit window
• Visa for the destination third country (where applicable) — Mozambican Border Police verify onward admissibility at port of entry.
• Yellow Fever vaccination certificate (if transiting through endemic African country) (if applicable)
• Proof of onward/return travel (a flight reservation) and accommodation (a hotel booking) where required.

Step-by-step: how to apply from Nepal

1. Confirm the visa type and current requirements on the official portal (https://evisa.gov.mz — Mozambican government e-Visa portal (recommended for Nepali tourists / business travellers) · https://embassyofmozambique.in — Embassy of Mozambique New Delhi (sticker visa + DIRE long-stay residence) · https://www.gov.mz — Government of Mozambique portal (visa policy, DNM updates)).
2. Gather and scan your documents; book your appointment at e-Visa portal (preferred for Nepalis) OR Embassy of Mozambique New Delhi (sticker visa) or start the online form.
3. Prepare proof of onward travel and accommodation — many applicants use Yatra's verifiable reservations rather than buying non-refundable bookings before approval.
4. Pay the visa fee, submit (and give biometrics if required), then track your application.
