It depends where in Mozambique you want to visit. The most popular place to go is Maputo. On average, it costs CHF 118 per day to rent a car there. The cheapest price we could find is CHF 59 per day.

Most car hire deals in Mozambique include basic insurance cover. You don’t need to add excess insurance, but it’s worth thinking about.

In Mozambique, the excess (what you pay if the car gets damaged or stolen) ranges from CHF 2'536 to CHF 4'004, depending on who you book with. Excess insurance prices in Mozambique also vary by company.

You can buy excess insurance separately, which is usually cheaper than buying it through the car hire company.
It depends. Some car hire companies in Mozambique accept debit cards, others require a credit card. Check the company’s accepted payment methods before you book.

Either way, the card needs to be in the main driver's name and you'll need enough money on it to cover a security deposit. You’ll get that back when you return the car.
If you've booked car hire with free cancellation, you can usually cancel or change your booking without paying a fee. The time you have to cancel depends on the car hire company, but it's typically around 24 hours before pick-up. If you cancel after that, you may be charged.

If your booking doesn't include free cancellation, you'll need to check the car hire company's policy. Depending on when you cancel, you might need to pay a cancellation fee or you won’t get a refund.
We couldn’t find any electric car hire deals in Mozambique. More EVs are becoming available, so that could change in the future. If you're still looking for a lower-emission option, you can compare hybrid cars on Skyscanner.
