Abstract: This article aims to analyze "Regional Economic Development, focusing on the impact of barrier containment strategies in third-party markets." It uses a qualitative approach and a descriptive method, using data collection and document analysis. The specific objectives are: to analyze the contribution of the tertiary sector to the Mozambican economy; to describe the trade barriers Mozambique faces in third-party markets; and to review Mozambique's strategies for containing trade barriers in third-party markets. It is concluded that the service sector has contributed significantly to economies worldwide (with considerable increases in GDP per capita and improved living standards). The United States and China have diversified and developed service sectors, contributing billions of dollars to their economies. Mozambique is slowly following suit. In 2024, the tertiary sector contributed US$8.6 million. Despite benefits, the Mozambican service sector faces a range of barriers: terrorism, climate change, low human capital qualifications, availability of high-interest financial credit, deficient and insufficient transportation infrastructure, among others. Recommendations: Definitively halt terrorism, invest in education and vocational training for all Mozambicans, expand and invest in more quality transportation infrastructure, review the regulations of the Mozambican tertiary sector, open up and make more credit available at low interest rates for tertiary sector investments, among others; and conduct studies focused on the Third Sector (non-profit organizations).
