# Fomboni (KM FOU)

**UN/LOCODE:** KM FOU  
**Country:** Comoros  
**Water Body:** Mozambique Channel; Indian Ocean  
**Harbor Size:** Very Small  
**Harbor Type:** Open Roadstead  
**GPS:** -12.2667, 43.7500

Handling only some 30,000 to 40,000 tonnes a year across an 80 m quay with about 2.4 m of water, Fomboni on Mohéli island has no real commercial freight role. Container and liner services are absent, and imported goods are usually cleared at Moroni or the deep-water port of Mutsamudu before being trans-shipped to the island on small boats. Carriers frequently skip Mohéli altogether, which suppresses inter-island demand. Cyclone Kenneth left the port's structure damaged in 2019, so for regular cargo Mutsamudu and Moroni are the practical alternatives.
