Madagascar Yellow Fever if we have visited Peru in the last 6 month

Country forums / Africa / Madagascar

Hi all,
We are planning to visit Madagascar in April 2012.
We have been on Peru in September 2011 (on areas where yellowfever is not an issue - but it would be hard to proove).
Do i need to have yellowfever shot when entering to Madagascar in this case? btw we will get there thru reunion - due to price pesrpective. Not sure if it changes anything.
Thanks for your helps in advance.

Madagascar requires a YF certificate if you are arriving directly from a place with Yellow Fever. Peru, six months ago, doesn't qualify.

Reunion has the same requirement--will you be transiting through anywhere in Africa to get to Reunion? Or just flying directly from Europe?
