APIEX Registration & Incentives in Mozambique

Projects registered through APIEX can access meaningful customs and tax relief — but only where the application is structured correctly from the start.

What the incentives cover

Depending on regime and location, benefits can include exemption from import duty on capital equipment, investment tax credits, accelerated depreciation and reduced rates for qualifying zones and sectors.

Conditions attached

Incentives carry commitments on capital deployment, job creation and implementation timelines. Failing them can trigger clawback, so we build the application around what you can genuinely deliver.

Frequently asked questions

Is APIEX registration mandatory?

No, but registration is what makes incentives and certain guarantees available, and it supports the central bank registration used for repatriation.

How long does approval take?

Commonly six to twelve weeks for standard projects, longer for large or zone-based applications requiring inter-ministerial review.
