Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Just days before the festive season, operators of international routes to Durban and Johannesburg from the Junta International and Interprovincial Road Transport terminal in Maputo acknowledge that the movement of Mozambicans and tourists into the country has increased.<\/p>\n

However, fees charged for Covid-19 testing at the borders have reduced the numbers travelling to South Africa.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the past two years, the business has been unprofitable. Losses have compounded because the South African health authorities do not recognise negative test certificates issued by Mozambique, and charge R300 for tests carried out on the driver and all passengers,\u201d Jos\u00e9 Munguambe, an inspector at the terminal, said.<\/p>\n

Transporters expect passenger numbers to pick up in January, when Mozambicans living in neighbouring South Africa start to return.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow, we see two vehicles a day leaving. That will increase to five when foreigners starting leaving for South Africa,\u201d Muguambe said.<\/p>\n
