- Stay limit
- Stays of less than 60 days on the tourist eVisa
- Entries
- Single
Madagascar’s official eVisa portal states that all nationalities are eligible for the tourist eVisa, which covers Pakistani passport holders. You register online and receive an electronic travel authorisation within 72 hours, then present it at the eVisa counters on arrival. The Ministry of Tourism confirms the single-entry visa can be requested online or on arrival at the airport, and that visas are also issued by Madagascar’s diplomatic and consular missions.
Madagascar, the world’s fourth-largest island, is home to lemurs found nowhere else, the Avenue of the Baobabs near Morondava, the limestone needles of Tsingy de Bemaraha and the beaches of Nosy Be. Pakistani travellers need a visa, but it is easy to obtain.
The official eVisa portal states plainly that all nationalities are eligible. Pakistani passport holders can register online, pay and receive an electronic travel authorisation, or request the same tourist visa at the eVisa counters on arrival.
Prices depend on the length of stay: USD 35 for up to 15 days, USD 41 for up to 30, USD 47 for up to 60 and USD 59 for up to 90 days, with euro equivalents of EUR 30 to EUR 50. The portal says the online price matches the arrival price.
Online, you create an account, add identity and travel details, choose your dates and download a landing authorisation within 72 hours. Apply between one week and six months before departure, and keep a printed or phone copy for police control.
The eVisa covers tourism only and is single entry; other purposes go through Madagascar’s embassies and consulates. Use only the official platform, as the portal warns of fraudulent copycat sites.
