A recent discussion clarifies that the label ‘Monhé’ does not represent a distinct nationality. Instead, it refers to individuals of Indian descent living in Mozambique, whose legal status varies. Some are recognized as Mozambican citizens, others retain foreign nationality, and a few may lack any formal citizenship, rendering them stateless.

The distinction underscores the diversity of identity and legal status among Indian-origin residents in the country.
