I've not seen anything stating that silencer/suppressors are not allowed in Mozambique. Your question though also makes me realize I've not seen anything stating they are allowed. I messaged my PH as my upcoming hunt is in Mozambique to have him confirm they are allowed. But also interested if anyone here has more concrete proof of them either being allowed or being prohibited. Are suppressors controlled items in Mozambique?

.375 Cal Suppressor anyone?

I can’t point you to anything written one way or the other. Obviously listen to whatever you outfitters says!
My experience based on one trip to Mozambique, October 2023. I checked with my outfitter before hand and he said suppressors are legal in Mozambique. My PH confirmed during the hunt that a number of clients have brought suppressors over to Mozambique. I had zero issue traveling with my suppressor through South Africa and importing through Tete, Mozambique.
They checked my rifle and serial number, but nobody in Africa, even bothered to look at my suppressor or ask for paperwork. I actually didn’t have any issues on the US side either. When I came back through Atlanta they didn’t even ask about the suppressor, want to see my form 4, or even look at my 4457 for the suppressor. Just checked the rifle serial number on my 4457 and sent me on my way.
So based on my experience, I would not hesitate to bring a suppressor to Mozambique. I’ll definitely be bringing my suppressor again on my next Mozambique hunt in 2025. I’m a bit bummed my suppressor has to stay at home for my Zimbabwe hunt this fall.

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?
I am possibly going to book with him soon.

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
