What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond arrival date, with at least 2 blank pages
  • Completed online pre-registration form at evisamada.gov.mg before departure (recommended, speeds up airport processing)
  • Recent passport-style photo (digital upload for pre-registration; physical copy for the arrival counter)
  • Proof of onward/return ticket
  • Hotel booking or address of stay in Madagascar
  • Proof of sufficient funds for the trip
  • No advance biometrics required - fingerprints/photo captured at the visa-on-arrival counter at Ivato International Airport (Antananarivo)
  • Travel health insurance is recommended, though not strictly mandatory for entry

Visa types

  • Tourist visa on arrival, up to 30 days: single entry, approximate fee USD 37 (or local currency equivalent)
  • Tourist visa on arrival, up to 60 days: single entry, approximate fee USD 55
  • Tourist visa on arrival, up to 90 days: single entry, approximate fee USD 74
  • Business visa on arrival: similar fee structure to tourist, requires an invitation letter from a Malagasy company

Visa on arrival

  • Complete the online pre-registration at evisamada.gov.mg before your flight - this generates a reference/QR code that speeds up the airport queue
  • On arrival at Ivato International Airport, proceed to the visa-on-arrival counter, present your passport, pre-registration reference, photo, and pay the visa fee in cash (USD or Malagasy Ariary) or by card where accepted
  • Processing at the counter typically takes a few minutes to under an hour, depending on queue length
  • Queue tips: arrive with exact USD cash to avoid delays with change; have your hotel address and return ticket printed and ready to show

Fees & processing time

  • Visa fee: USD 37 (30 days), USD 55 (60 days), or USD 74 (90 days), payable on arrival
  • No separate service/VFS fee - the online pre-registration itself is free
  • Total estimated cost: USD 37-74 depending on stay length
  • Processing time: minutes to about an hour at the airport counter for pre-registered travelers; longer queues possible without pre-registration
  • No express/priority lane fee is published; pre-registration is the main way to speed things up

Tips for Pakistan travelers

  • Always complete the online pre-registration before flying - airlines may also require proof of it before boarding
  • Common delays: not having exact fee amount in cash, missing hotel/address details, photos not matching passport
  • Keep a printed copy of your e-Visa pre-registration confirmation alongside your passport
  • Extensions beyond the initial visa-on-arrival period can be requested at the Immigration Service in Antananarivo before expiry
  • Since Madagascar has no embassy in Pakistan, carry all documentation yourself rather than relying on local consular support if problems arise
