Message from the Honorary Consul General

It is my honour to welcome you to the website of the Honorary Consulate General of the Republic of Malawi in Mauritius. On behalf of the Government and people of Malawi, I extend warm greetings to every visitor — Malawians living, working or studying in Mauritius, Mauritian partners and friends, and all who wish to discover our country.

Malawi and Mauritius are fellow members of the Southern African Development Community, the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa, the African Union and the Commonwealth. The Consulate General exists to bring that partnership closer to people: to assist our nationals, to guide travellers, and to open doors for trade, investment, tourism and cultural exchange in both directions.

Malawi is known as the Warm Heart of Africa — for the generosity of its people as much as for the beauty of its lake, mountains and wildlife. I invite you to explore these pages, and to contact us whenever we can be of assistance.
