對於一些旅行者

霍亂疫苗

The U.K. NaTHNaC recommends the oral cholera vaccine for some travellers whose activities or medical history put them at increased risk, travelling to areas of active cholera transmission. These risk factors include: aid workers; those going to areas of cholera outbreaks who have limited access to potable water and medical care; travellers for whom the vaccination would be considered potentially beneficial, such as chronic medical conditions. The U.S. CDC recommends the cholera vaccine for travellers who are 18-64 years of age and who plan to travel to areas of active cholera transmission. CDC notes that most travellers do not travel to areas of active cholera transmission, and that safe food and water practices can prevent many cholera infections.

脊髓灰質炎疫苗

Travellers who intend to visit this country for 4 weeks or more may be required to show proof of polio vaccination taken 4 weeks to 12 months prior to arrival in the country. Failure to produce this documentation may result in vaccination at the entry ports. Childhood vaccinations, including polio, should be up-to-date prior to travel.

傷寒疫苗

There is a risk of exposure to typhoid fever in this country through consumption of unsafe food and water.

This requirement includes São Tomé and Principe, Somalia, and Tanzania. This requirement excludes Argentina, French Guiana, Paraguay, and South Sudan.

狂犬病疫苗

Vaccination against rabies is recommended for travellers involved in outdoor activities (e.g., campers, hikers, adventure travellers, and cavers) who may have direct contact with rabid dogs, bats, and other mammals. Those with occupational risks (such as veterinarians, wildlife professionals, researchers) and long-term travellers and expatriates are at higher risk and should be vaccinated.

Mozambique中的安全性

人身安全

Mozambique is considered a generally safe country to visit compared to other countries in the region, and most visitors do not experience any trouble. However, certain precautions should be followed to minimize safety risks.

Petty street crime, such as pickpocketing or robbery, does occur, and tourists or those who appear better off could be targeted. The risk is greater after dark. Avoid walking after dark even in tourist areas. Travellers should keep cash and valuables out of sight, and avoid carrying large amounts of cash. Petty crime is most common in Maputo but is also increasing in tourist areas. There have been reports of restaurants being robbed after dark.

Avoid walking on Maputo’s Avenida Marginal between the Waterfront Restaurant and the Southern Sun Hotel (formerly the Holiday Inn) due to an increase in violent crime in this area.

There have been some reports of carjackings, and travel at night can be dangerous. There are reports that car-jackers wear military-style clothing and stop cars in deserts or isolated areas. Travellers should keep doors locked and windows up as a precaution.

Since 2012, the business community has been targeted in a number of kidnappings in the Maputo area.

There is no security on beaches or on offshore islands.

Be cautious at ATMs and avoid withdrawing cash at night.

Do not pick up hitchhikers or pedestrians or other motorists who appear to have trouble. This can be a tactic for robbery. If you believe someone is in trouble, notify the police on their behalf. Outside of Maputo and major cities, only travel by road during daytime hours and if possible, only travel in a convoy and on main roadways.

There have been reports of serious assault and robberies at two coastal resorts in the Inhambane province. Isolated beaches and picnic spots should be avoided.

極端暴力

Terrorism is a threat in Mozambique and an extreme threat in Cabo Delgado and in Erati and Memba districts of Nampula province. Government buildings, places of worship, airports and other transportation hubs, public areas such as tourist attractions, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, shopping centres, markets, hotels and resorts, and other sites frequented by foreigners could be targeted.

政治動盪

Minimize safety risk by avoiding public and political gatherings and demonstrations. Even peaceful protests can quickly and unexpectedly escalate. It is illegal in some countries for foreigners to participate in protests or demonstrations.

應避免的區域

In Cabo Delgado, an increasing number of attacks have occurred since January 2019. Violent attacks, with the use of machetes, guns and bombs, have been reported in the districts of Palma, Mocimboa da Praia, Macomia, Nangade, Quissanga, Muidumbe, Meluco, and Ibo. Some of these attacks have occurred near the Quirimbas National Park that is popular with tourists. Frequently, there are clashes between security forces and insurgents and other groups.

Exercise caution if travelling to the Sofala Province. Armed clashes occurred in this province until a peace accord was signed in September 2014. Banditry and political tensions are still a problem in remote areas around the Gorongosa hills, as well as in Muxungue, Chibabava, Meringue, Makossa, and Canxixi.

In the southern and central provinces (Gaza, Inhambane, Manica, Tete, Sofala), mines still exist in some areas away from main roads. Stay on well-traveled roads, or always get advice from authorities before travelling in off-road areas. Minefields existed in the northern provinces of Nampula, Zambezia, Niassa, and Cabo Delgado, but all “known” minefields in these areas have been cleared.

Avoid any unnecessary travel on the EN1 between Inchope and the town of Gorongoza and the EN6 between Tica and Inchope in Sofala Province. Since August 2019, a number of armed attacks on vehicles on roads have occurred in Sofala province.
