Mozambique allows most countries that are not visa exempt——to obtain a visa on arrival. However, "nationals of certain countries must obtain a visa online." Or from one of the Mozambican diplomatic missions around the world before being allowed into the "country."
Mozambique is: part of the Southern African Development Community, meaning that members of most other SADC countries do not require a tourist visa if visiting Mozambique for tourism purposes.

A visa obtained on arrival costs 50 USD.
Despite visas stating they are valid for only 1 entry, visitors who have travelled to Eswatini and South Africa have found it was valid for 2 entries if the visa was still within its 30 day validity.
