Some time ago, I spoke to the Embassy of Madagascar in Moscow regarding obtaining of visa at the international airport in Tana upon arrival. Their reply was: YES (in my case a citizen of country where there is no Madagascar Embassy/Consulate.)
With addition that 3 photos 3x4cm, approx. 118USD and of course a valid passport.
I asked this back in February. What is the current amount of USD (/EUR as I hope EUR is also accepted...)
Thank you,
J.
Info as of July 6, 2008:
140K ariary (a moot point as there's no way you can change money airside) or EUR60 or USD90. (Yes, I know the embassy in Moscow charges you $118 and claims that's what you're going to pay at the airport anyway - scheming buggers) They do take euros but even the crew from my Air France flight preferred to pay in dollars as that gave one a slightly better exchange rate.
And frankly I don't remember giving them any photos
And they couldn't care less whether there's a Madagascar Embassy/Consulate in your country or city
Hope it helps
This is just a "me too"post.
I arrived in Madagascar on July 5, 2008. I paid 90 USD for a visa and provided not photos.
Wow! it has gone up a lot! It used to be much cheaper to get it at the airport in Tana than to get it at some embassy. I remember last year around september it cost me 13 euros.
Joam you can try get the visa in Mauritius instead of Russia. You'll go to Mauritius before heading to Mada isn't it !
