For all stays of more than 90 days, the Madagascar visa must be applied for at the Embassy in your home country. For further information on the visa requirements, please visit the embassy's website.

Transportation Through Madagascar

There are many different ways of how to get around in Madagascar. For long distances, taxis and airplanes are the dominant means of transport. For short distances within the city, minibusses, tuk-tuks, and rickshaws are a common means of transportation.
