Mozambique - Pets
Mozambique does not quarantine healthy pets who meet the following requirements:
• Mozambique requires an import permit for entry.
• Visitors should apply well ahead of their visit for a permit to bring their pet into Mozambique if it is necessary.
• Your pet must be vaccinated for rabies and various other diseases between 30 days and 12 months of entry. The vaccination record must show proof of DHPP for Dogs, strongly suggest Lepto for this part of the world, and cats must show proof of FVRCP.
• Not more than 10 days before travel, a USDA (or CFIA) accredited veterinarian must then complete a Veterinary Certificate for endorsement by the USDA or CFIA if travelling from the United States or Canada. If you are not travelling from either of these countries, the Governing Authority of your country responsible for the import and export of animals should endorse the forms.
• A copy of the Rabies Certificate should also be included for endorsement.
All documentation MUST be in the name of the owner of the pet.

To all,
I suggest to see this video from 19 min.: Bazaruto anchorage.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_DChPX9OYQ&t=5s
We are at Bazaruto beach ( 7/11/2016) and the fisherman with red shirt is the village boss and the thief.
We were at our anchorage when they indicated us a new position. No problem, we changed our anchorage .
Any way, it was difficult to trust them ( they were well looking at our deck) and, over all, the very unfriendly boss. So when we had, after a while, the visit of a rangers boat ( two uniform of them on board and. we payed a modest Park fee) I asked them if the anchorage was safe. “ No problem, Sir, my family lives here at village on the shore”
We went ashore for a short walk with some gifts (colored pens, books ecc) for children.
Before sunset we hauled out the tender and we fixed it on right side (the outboard with little chain). The day after, at dawn, the outboard was disappeared. We sailed away immediately.
I hope this experience may help…over all, don’t stay alone for more one night anchorage.

For our Madagascar, Mahajanga armed robbery look at:

Reported by Des Cason:
I have been involved in weather f/casting and route planning for yachts coming to SA via Madagascar/Reunion/Mauritius and so far have had 22 either safe in Richards Bay or still en route, in addition, the 15 ARC yachts en route from Reunion.
Having learnt from bitter experience to stay out of Mozambique I have consistently warned yachties about the corruption and crime with the recommendation to stay away. During the past 5-7 years the port operations were privatised which one would assume would be a good thing, but this just brought into play a more efficient ”mafia” to extort exorbitant fees etc. from defenceless yachties. Threats of attaching/impounding yachts and confiscation of passports were favourites.
The bright spot to this is a report received from SV PARMELIA (Italian registry) following a visit to Ilha D’Mozambique (14 59S 40 46E). He was advised that due to the negative effect corruption has had on tourism, the central government has clamped down with draconian measures and all of a sudden it is all happiness. The fees he was charged were reasonable and he had no hassle with officials who could not be more accommodating and helpful.
Whether this is a local anomaly or a sign of what we can expect at other ports (especially needed at Nacala which is a den of iniquity) we don’t know yet, but it is a bit of positive news out of Africa for a change. I will keep you posted on developments.
Regards,
Des
