Top Comments of this video!! :3
As a mozambican, I want to extend my apologies for this situation. The corruption in our country is embarrassing even for us. I had a gun pointed to me while pregnant because we seated in our car in front of the beach during covid.
We all have horror stories with authorities and is very sad indeed.

This reminds me of the Dutch YouTuber ItchyBoots who recently had her gopro running when a couple of police officers in Nigeria asked her for money, and then there was another video on YT where both of the officers were marched into a tribunal, stripped of their badges, and fired for their actions.

I knew that Southeast Asia would encounter bad custom houses, but I didn’t expect that Mozambique’s was even worse!
Their custom houses has brought shame to their country, and the number of tourists will definitely decrease in the future!
Fortunately, their chocolate croissant, grilled chicken and samosa look delicious, haha!
I hope you will not be affected by them, be happy, and continue to enjoy your travel!
I believe your valuable experience will be of great help to future travelers there, thank you for sharing, still great job! 👍😍🙏

Hey everyone! Just wanted to provide some extra information to help others that might be visiting: - The easiest way to avoid any immigration scams would be to simply get the visa from a Mozambique embassy in your home country if available. That way you will have the visa in your passport already and you can bypass the people that we had to deal with. We didn't do this since we haven't been in our home country in 5 months. - Unfortunately both the people that had pre-approved e-visas and the others that were getting the visa on arrival were still getting charged the double price of $100 just like us and they also couldn't do anything about it. It is important to note that the e-visa is just a pre-approval of your documents, it is not the actual visa so you still have to deal with the same people we dealt with and pay for it there. In some countries when you apply for an e-visa you actually pay for it online and you get the visa sent to you by e-mail which is not the case with this country. Obviously don't do what we did which could possibly set you up for an even rougher ride like ours. Based on what other people said, the corrupt officials will be looking for any reasons to get further money out of you. - Apparently there are some anti-corruption numbers you can call if you are having issues there: +258-800 222 222, +258-828 002 222, +258-848 002 222. Hope this information helps!
