Decree 10/2023 exempts ordinary-passport holders of the countries it lists, including Canada, the United States, Japan, the United Kingdom, Germany, France and Italy, from the entry visa for stays of 30 days, provided they pre-register at evisa.gov.mz at least 48 hours before boarding; the UK government calls this an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA).
