### Document checklist and eligibility for the Mozambique tourist visa
Embassy reviewers in Kathmandu check five things in order on every Nepali file:

- Passport with the required validity remaining beyond return and at least 2 blank pages.
- Identity proof — Nepali citizenship card or NID copy with the application form.
- Financial proof — 3-6 months of bank statements (original, signed and stamped on every page), tax returns where applicable, salary slips.
- Travel intent — flight bookings (Yatra dummy ticket NPR 999 if you don't want to commit yet) and hotel reservations covering the full stay.
- Tourist purpose proof — detailed itinerary plus a sponsor undertaking if family-supported.
The application is rejected if any one line is missing or unsigned — there is no partial credit.

### Important notes for Nepali applicants

- Every Nepali-language document MUST be accompanied by a notary-certified English translation — embassies will reject untranslated originals. Use a Nepal Bar Council–registered translator and have each translation notarised by a Notary Public.

- Mozambique visa applications do NOT require the four-bundle Nepal income breakdown — DNM evaluates trip funding via standard bank statement (last 3 months) showing capacity for the trip. This is a deliberately lighter documentary standard than Schengen / UK / US visas.

- Mozambique is NOT in any visa-free regime that includes Nepal. Nepali passport holders need a visa for any visit to Mozambique — but the e-Visa pathway and Visa-on-Arrival at major airports make access very straightforward.

- GOOD NEWS for Nepal: Nepali tourists can choose between (1) e-Visa via evisa.gov.mz (5–10 days, USD 50–100), (2) Visa-on-Arrival at Maputo / Beira / Pemba / Vilanculos / Tete / Inhambane airports (since 2017, USD 50/100), (3) sticker visa at Embassy Delhi. The e-Visa is the simplest path for advance planning; Visa-on-Arrival is the fastest if entering directly via Maputo airport.

- Visa-on-Arrival fees (2026): USD 50 single-entry / USD 100 multiple-entry (cash USD only; no card / no Mozambican meticais accepted at the immigration counter). Carry exact-change USD bills.

- Yellow Fever vaccination is MANDATORY for travellers arriving from yellow-fever endemic countries (most sub-Saharan African countries + parts of South America). Nepal is NOT on the WHO endemic list, so a direct Nepal -&gt; Mozambique flight does NOT trigger the requirement. However, if you transit through any African country (Ethiopia, Kenya, South Africa, etc.) for &gt; 12 hours, the yellow-fever certificate becomes mandatory. Get vaccinated at least 10 days before travel at Teku Hospital or Norvic.

### What Yatra handles for Mozambique tourist visa applications

- PNR-backed dummy tickets at NPR 999 — accepted by most embassies as proof of onward travel so you can apply before paying for non-refundable flights. Available at yatraforfun.com/dummy-ticket.

- Re-application support — if rejected, the Yatra service fee is waived on the second submission (you re-pay the embassy fee, which is non-refundable on either attempt).

### Common mistakes Nepali applicants make on the Mozambique tourist visa

The five mistakes below account for the majority of preventable rejections we see on Nepal-MZ files. None of them are about the embassy being difficult — every one is fixable with a 30-minute pre-submission review.

- Photograph not to the embassy specification. Most Mozambique missions reject photos that fall outside the exact dimensions (typically 35x45mm or 51x51mm), have a non-white background, show ears partially covered, or were taken more than 6 months ago. Use a photo studio in Kathmandu (Bagbazar / Putalisadak / Naxal) that knows the Mozambique embassy spec — pay the extra NPR 200 for a fresh, compliant set rather than reusing an old printout.

- Bank balance pumped up the week before submission. Embassy reviewers read the 6-month statement, not the closing balance. A sudden NPR 5,00,000 deposit two weeks before submission with no salary or business inflow history flags as manufactured. Maintain a steady balance in line with declared income; if the funds are genuinely sponsored, attach the sponsor's 6-month statement and an undertaking letter rather than depositing into your own account.

- Untranslated Nepali documents. Every Nepali-language document submitted to a Mozambique mission must be accompanied by a notary-certified English translation — citizenship card, employer letter on Nepali letterhead, lalpurja (land deed), municipality registration, audit reports. Use a Nepal Bar Council-registered translator and have each translation notarised by a Notary Public; embassies routinely return files with raw Nepali originals.

- Cover letter that contradicts the booking dates. If the cover letter says you are travelling 12-25 Oct but the flight booking shows 14-22 Oct, the file gets returned for clarification. Re-read the cover letter against every attached booking before submission — dates, accommodation address, sponsor name, and total stay must match across all documents.

- Hotel booking that allows free cancellation but no payment proof. Mozambique embassies increasingly recognise the "book a refundable hotel just for the visa, cancel after approval" pattern. A confirmation showing prepayment (or at minimum a non-zero deposit) carries far more weight than a free-cancellation booking. If you genuinely need flexibility, attach the booking plus a covering note explaining your itinerary contingencies — silence reads as deception.

### After approval — the pre-departure checklist for Mozambique

Visa in passport is not the end of the work. Carry the following on the day of travel — Nepali passport holders are routinely secondary-screened at the entry port for Mozambique, and producing the right paperwork at immigration shortens the inspection from 30 minutes to 3.

- Printed visa or e-visa PDF — never rely solely on the digital copy on your phone. Carry one printed copy in your hand baggage and a backup in checked baggage.

- Confirmed return ticket in your name — Mozambique immigration may ask to see the onward flight at arrival, especially for tourist and visit classes.

- Hotel confirmation for the first 3 nights minimum, with the address printed in the local language where applicable. Immigration officers ask "where are you staying" and a vague answer triggers secondary screening.

- Travel insurance certificate — increasingly mandatory at the entry port even when the visa was approved without it.

- Cash in destination currency equivalent to at least USD 100/day for the first 3 days — immigration occasionally asks "show me funds" and a card or e-wallet does not always satisfy.

- Yatra concierge contact — if you booked through Yatra, save our 24/7 number (+977 970-9066517) for any visa or entry-port issue. We have helped Nepali travellers re-enter Mozambique after secondary-screening flags more than 200 times in the last two years.

Approval rates depend on the visa class and your documentation. e-Visa Tourist (Single-Entry) for Nepali applicants is approved consistently when the file shows clean financials, ties to Nepal, and a purpose-specific cover letter.

### When is the best time to apply for a Mozambique tourist visa from Nepal?

Apply 4-6 weeks before travel for sticker visas and at least 1 week for e-visas.

For a 10-day European trip costing roughly NPR 3,00,000, that's NPR 4,50,000+ available consistently. Sponsor-supported applicants should attach the sponsor's 6-month statement plus an undertaking letter rather than depositing into their own account.

### What happens after the Mozambique tourist visa is approved?

Carry a printed visa or e-visa PDF, confirmed return ticket, hotel confirmation for the first 3 nights, travel insurance certificate, and USD 100/day cash equivalent in destination currency. Mozambique immigration commonly secondary-screens Nepali passport holders at arrival; producing the right paperwork shortens inspection from 30 minutes to 3.
