We hereby inform the business community and other interested parties that on 9 August 2022, the President of the Republic of Mozambique, Filipe Nyusi, announced 20 measures to stimulate the economy, including tax incentives. The measures form part of the PAE - Economic Acceleration Stimulus Package, aimed at responding to the country's growth needs, the negative impact of the Russia-Ukraine war, armed violence in Cabo Delgado province (northern Mozambique), and natural disasters.
Below we present the tax incentive measures:
Moreover, we also inform that these measures are not applied automatically, and thus new laws shall be approved to enable its implementation.
