Mozambique does not change its clocks
Mozambique stays on UTC+2:00 all year. Its offset from UTC never moves, so its relationship to places that do change shifts twice a year instead — which is usually why someone checks. Right now it is 2 hours ahead of UTC, and 7 hours ahead of New York.

The day is 13 hours 21 minutes long in Maputo, and gaining 1 minute a day. The sun peaks at 11:33 am, 27 minutes before noon on the clock. A UTC offset is a promise that the sun is overhead at midday on one meridian, and Maputo sits 10 minutes of solar time east of UTC+2:00’s. The rest is the equation of time, which swings about a quarter of an hour either way across the year.
The solar year swings 3 hours 15 minutes in Maputo: 13 hours 46 minutes of daylight at the December solstice against 10 hours 31 minutes at the June one. Being south of the equator, its longest day falls in December — the opposite way round from the other hemisphere.
Mozambique’s offset has not moved once since 1970 — no daylight saving, and no change of zone.
