Industrial Free Zones
The Industrial Free Zone Regime applies to the two component
parts of an Industrial Free Zone, namely:
The development and operation of the Industrial Free Zone infrastructure or
estate (Industrial Free Zone Developer); and the operation of an export oriented
manufacturing, processing or services enterprise within an Industrial Free
Zone (Industrial Free Zone Enterprise)
Requirements
There are two essential characteristics or requirements to qualify for
Industrial Free Zone status:
Job creation for Mozambican nationals, and the production of exports (85%
of the product must be exported)
In the case of an Industrial Free Zone Developer, the establishment and management
of the installations for such export production are required.
Once initially qualified for IFZ status, the operating certificate is issued
after construction and installation of the customs control and security procedures
and installations.
