Overview
The honorary consulate of Mozambique in Vienna serves as the sole Mozambican diplomatic presence in Austria, providing basic consular assistance to Mozambican citizens and travellers. Honorary Consul Karl Hans Polzhofer (since 2010) assists with inquiries related to travel to Mozambique — a Portuguese-speaking Southern African nation known for its Indian Ocean coastline, the Bazaruto and Quirimbas archipelagos, whale shark diving at Tofo Beach, the UNESCO-listed Ilha de Moçambique, and the restored Gorongosa National Park. For Austrian travellers, Mozambique offers an authentic and affordable Indian Ocean beach destination with Portuguese colonial charm. The consulate operates Tuesday to Thursday mornings and can facilitate contact with the Mozambican Embassy in Berlin for passport, visa, and more complex consular matters.
