Rules in force · 7Chapas (shared minibuses) are crowded and not for suitcases
  • Mozambique ↗Check visa and entry rules for your passport on official Mozambican government sources; rules for some nationalities have changed recently.
  • Mozambique ↗Carry your passport or a certified copy at all times; police document checks are common.
  • Mozambique ↗Governments advise against travel to parts of Cabo Delgado province in the north; check your own government's advice for the exact areas.
  • Maputo and the Deep South ↗Do not drive between Maputo and the southern beaches after dark; potholes, animals and unlit vehicles make night driving the main road risk.
  • Maputo ↗Chapas (shared minibuses) are crowded and not for suitcases: use a taxi or a pre-booked car whenever you carry luggage.
  • Maputo ↗After dark, ride between hotel and dinner even for a few blocks; keep phones and cameras out of sight in the street.
