How to make friends in Mozambique

Sir,

I wan to visit Muntapouze in Mozambique for business purposes, so I need ur valuable advices in this regard from getting the business visa upto living there , so can u help me in this regard

Hi Shisham,

I would advise u not to do business in Mozambique unless u speak fluent Portuguese or an African Dialect.

Mozambique is so corrupt that most of your capital will be taken up with bribes and then there is no guarentee that u will get anything.

What type of business do u have in mind?

I lived in Mozambique for 20 years and was luckily very lucky in getting the right contacts.

It is also difficult getting permanent residency.

You are welcome to write to me off the list at diana_harvey68@yahoo.com and I will endenvour to help you with advice where I can.

Take care Di

Absolutely!!Well said ms.Diana.I was in Maputo till jan 20th 2013,but i left for good.My family was doing business for the past 25 years n we r now struggling to run.

I now live happily in Dubai.Mozambique can never b business frendly  or developed country if things goes in this manner.

I wish all the best for the country and the ppl.

Think well!!!

I would like to politely disagree with yaso6. In 25 years many business have been opened in Maputo. Not every businee succeeds by now you know out of every 100 only 10 % will survive past 3 years. The figure reduces with years and this applies everywhere in the world. If you do your reseach well and consistently check your progress you must succeed. So everybody is welcomed to do whatever they can do well, the opportunities are there.  Avoid illegal business do legal the right way.

If you want to know people in Mozambique contact me.... I will help you
