The Diplomatic Permit is a crucial authorization for diplomats serving with foreign missions or international organizations in Malawi. This permit ensures that diplomatic personnel and their dependents can reside and carry out diplomatic activities within the country for the duration of their assignment.
Malawi values the role of diplomacy in international relations, and the Diplomatic Permit facilitates smooth diplomatic operations for foreign missions. The permit is flexible and can be renewed based on the diplomat's tenure in the country.
To apply for a Diplomatic Permit, ensure the following documents are prepared:
The Malawi e-Permit System runs background checks to ensure compliance with the country’s regulations. False or misleading information in the permit application can result in legal or administrative penalties. Final approval is contingent upon an inspection by an Immigration Officer upon arrival or at the Immigration Office Headquarters. Note that a permit can be revoked if new eligibility issues arise.
