Does anyone know if it's true that only 30-day visas are available at the airport? That's what it says in the current LP edition.

I'll stay for 5 weeks and would like to avoid the trip to the embassy. And just in case it matters: I'm a German citizen.

Thanks!

LP that I had was not accurate - it also mentioned one photo that is required... Paid 95USD (or 140,000MGA) and got visa for 13days - exactly matching my return ticket that I had to show to the immigration officer. You'll be alright with your five weeks.

I just called the embassy in NYC and they told me $120 dollars, even though on the application that you can get onilne (which was updated on October 8th, 2008) clearly statest the fee is $95, but you do have to mail your passport in, which concerns me.
