ABOUT DLA PIPER AFRICA, MOZAMBIQUE (SAL & CALDEIRA ADVOGADOS, LDA)

 SAL & Caldeira offers in-depth knowledge across the full spectrum of legal practice areas in addition to contributing to legal reform in Mozambique across a broad range of disciplines.

Our clients include leading petroleum and mining companies in Mozambique as well as other foreign investors, international banks, diplomatic missions and international NGOs.

A household name in Mozambique's legal and business circles, the firm was instrumental in founding the Mozambican International Petroleum Operators’ Association (Associação Moçambicana de Operadores Petrolíferas Internacionais (AMOPI)) and the Chamber of Mines of Mozambique (CMM). As such, the firm continues to negotiate legislation and regulations on behalf of the extractive industries vis-à-vis the Government in a broad range of matters, from sector-specific regulations to labor rules, tax laws and regulations. The firm also frequently represents Mozambique’s Confederation of Economic Associations (CTA) in the negotiation of strategic, business- related legislation (for example, the Mega-Projects Law and currently the Labor Law).

We are the only law firm in Mozambique with a team exclusively dedicated to immigration matters.

Firm Leadership:  Eduardo Alberto da Costa Calú (Managing Partner)
