Taiwan (Chinese Taipei) to Mozambique visa requirements

Taiwan ordinary passport holders need a visa for Mozambique. Taiwan is not on Mozambique's visa-exemption list, so it cannot use the ETA (which is reserved for visa-exempt nationals). The correct, reliable channel is the tourist eVisa, applied for online before departure at the official portal evisa.gov.mz. Visa on arrival technically still exists at major airports but is unreliable in 2026, and airlines now verify pre-authorization before boarding. As of mid-2026, a Taiwan (ROC) ordinary passport holder traveling to Mozambique for tourism requires a visa. Mozambique operates a tiered entry system: visa-exempt nationals (about 29 countries plus SADC members) use an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA), while all non-exempt nationals must obtain a visa. Taiwan does not appear on any Mozambican visa-waiver list, so the ETA is not available to Taiwan passport holders. The applicable channel is the tourist eVisa, applied for and approved online before departure via the official National Migration Service portal (evisa.gov.mz), which since 11 February 2026 has been operated in partnership with VFS Global. The tourist eVisa is available for 30, 60, or 90 days, with single or multiple entry. Although a visa on arrival still technically exists at major airports (Maputo, Beira, Pemba, Vilanculos) and key land borders, Mozambican authorities and travel advisories in 2026 strongly warn against relying on it: staffing and policy are inconsistent, and airlines now check that passengers hold an approved eVisa or ETA before boarding. Travelers without pre-approval risk being denied boarding. Required supporting documents include a passport valid at least six months with two blank pages, a passport photo, proof of accommodation, proof of sufficient funds, and a return or onward ticket. The conservative, reliable recommendation is to apply for the eVisa online before travel.

/06 — The risks

Common refusal reasons

by frequency
/01
Taiwan is not visa-exempt
Mozambique grants visa exemption (and ETA eligibility) only to specific countries; Taiwan is not among them, so a visa is required.
High
/02
ETA is reserved for visa-exempt nationals
The Electronic Travel Authorisation applies only to the ~29 visa-exempt and SADC countries, which excludes Taiwan; the eVisa is the correct route.
High
/03
Visa on arrival is now unreliable
Since 2026 airlines verify pre-authorization before boarding and VOA staffing/policy is inconsistent, so VOA cannot be relied upon.
Medium
/04
Documentation must support the application
Missing accommodation proof, return ticket, or proof of funds can cause eVisa refusal or boarding denial.
