Frequently asked questions
From the early twentieth century an organised recruitment system took workers from what is now Malawi to gold mines in South Africa and to farms and mines in Zimbabwe and Zambia. The scale was very large and spanned generations; in some periods a significant share of Malawi's adult men were working abroad.
Many stayed, married, and their descendants were born in South Africa or Zimbabwe, speaking local languages, never having seen Malawi. When nationality law changed in the host country, those grandchildren were asked where their origins lay, and the answer Malawi was enough to cost them the nationality of their birthplace.
The grandfather who went to the mines did not migrate wrongly — he went through an official recruitment system, under contract, accepted and encouraged by both states. What that system contained no answer to was which nationality his descendants would hold. A labour or residence programme can be entirely lawful and still say nothing about the legal status of the next generation.
Do not stop at how long may I stay. Ask on: what nationality will my child born here hold, and my grandchild. Very many programmes have no answer to the second question, and a century later that is exactly where things break.
It covers roughly a fifth of the country's area, is among Africa's largest lakes, is deep, and holds more endemic fish species than any other lake in the world. It is a UNESCO site. The lake is also a contested boundary: Malawi and Tanzania hold different positions on the border within it, based on colonial-era treaties.
Agriculture is the pillar and tobacco accounts for a very large share of exports — the single-commodity problem in its hardest form, because global tobacco demand is falling rather than rising. There is also tea, sugar, pulses and lakeside tourism.
Malawi is known for a high degree of safety and friendliness in the region, and has had several peaceful transfers of power through elections, including one occasion where the courts annulled an election result and ordered a re-run — something very rare anywhere.
Malawi's nationality law has been amended in recent years to relax older rules, but conditions differ by case. Check the current statute and take local legal advice rather than relying on older information.
