Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra with Cartan subalgebra $\mathfrak{h}$. We prove a unique factorization property for tensor products of parabolic Verma modules. More generally, we prove unique factorization for products of characters of parabolic Verma modules when restricted to certain subalgebras of $\mathfrak{h}$. These include fixed point subalgebras of $\mathfrak{h}$ under subgroups of diagram automorphisms of $\mathfrak{g}$ and twisted graph automorphisms in the affine case.
