Frequently asked questions

How much passport validity does Mozambique require?

Mozambique requires your passport to stay valid for at least 6 months beyond your entry date.

What happens if my passport doesn't meet Mozambique's validity rule?

Airlines routinely deny boarding at check-in if your passport doesn't meet the destination's stated validity rule, even before you reach immigration — it's worth checking well before you book, not just before you fly.

Is Mozambique's passport rule the same as its visa rule?

No — passport validity and visa requirements are separate checks. Applies to visa-on-arrival entry.

Should I renew my passport before booking a trip to Mozambique?

If your passport's expiry date is close to the cutoff this checker calculates, renew before booking — passport offices often take longer than travelers expect, especially in peak season.
