Vietnam and Mozambique established diplomatic ties on June 25, 1975 – the day when the African nation declared independence.

Mozambique is an important partner of Vietnam in Africa. The two nations have maintained cooperative relations through Party and State channels and people-to-people exchange. The Communist Party of Vietnam and the Liberation Front of Mozambique (Frelimo) have cooperated closely in personnel training and scientific research.

Bilateral economic and trade relations have enjoyed impressive growth over the past years. Two-way trade increased from just USD 13.83 million in 2006 to USD 101 million in 2016, of which Vietnam’s exports were valued at USD 72.5 million.

In the time ahead, the two countries will intensify collaboration in telecommunications, health, education, and mining, and create favorable conditions for Vietnamese enterprises to invest in the production of rice, cashew nuts and soybean in the African country.
