Madagascar visa requirements for Pakistani citizens in 2025

If you're planning a trip from Pakistan to Madagascar, you’ll need a visa before you can explore the island’s unique wildlife and vibrant landscapes. The good news is that Pakistani travelers can apply for a Madagascar eVisa online-no embassy visits required.

We’ve helped thousands of travelers from Pakistan get their eVisas easily and on time. Here’s everything you need to know to apply with confidence.

Do Pakistani citizens need a visa for Madagascar?

Yes. Pakistan is not on Madagascar’s visa-exempt list, which means all travelers from Pakistan must apply for a visa in advance. Fortunately, the eVisa makes it simple.

You can apply online and receive your Landing Authorization by email before departure. This lets you board your flight and complete your visa on arrival at the airport in Madagascar.

Madagascar eVisa options for Pakistani passport holders

Pakistani citizens can choose from three eVisa options, all valid for single entry:

• 15-day eVisa
• 30-day eVisa
• 60-day eVisa

Each visa type is valid for tourism purposes and must be used within 6 months of approval.

“I went with the 30-day visa since I was planning a round trip across Madagascar. It was approved in 48 hours and made arrival super smooth.” – Imran, a Pakistani photographer from Lahore

What documents do I need?

The document checklist is simple, but each item is important. You’ll need:

• A Pakistani passport valid for at least 6 months with 2 blank pages
• A recent passport-style photo
• Proof of accommodation (e.g. hotel booking)
• Return flight tickets
• Proof of sufficient funds (minimum \$50 per day)
• A valid email address to receive your eVisa

Pro tip: Upload clear, color scans of all documents. Low-quality images are a common reason for delays.

Key travel tips for Pakistani citizens

To make your journey smoother, keep these tips in mind:

• Apply at least 3 days before your travel date to allow time for processing
• Travel with printed copies of your return flight and hotel confirmation
• Keep your Landing Authorization handy—you’ll need it for boarding and again at immigration
• Use ride-hailing apps or book airport transfers in advance if arriving in Antananarivo

Pro tip: If you plan to stay longer than your visa allows, visit the immigration office in Antananarivo before your visa expires to request an extension.

Health, safety, and special considerations

Pakistani travelers should be aware of a few extra items when preparing:

• While travel insurance is not mandatory, it’s highly recommended for medical emergencies and trip delays
• Yellow fever vaccination is required only if transiting through an affected country
• Internet and mobile access may be limited outside major cities—download key info ahead of time

“I stored all my documents on Google Drive and carried paper copies just in case. It came in handy more than once.” – Bilal, a Pakistani backpacker on a 2-week eco-tour

What if something goes wrong?

While approved eVisas are generally accepted, the final decision rests with immigration officers at the port of entry. If your documents are incomplete or you can’t show proof of accommodation or funds, you may be refused entry.

If your application is rejected, we’ll help you understand what went wrong and guide you through a reapplication.

You can track your visa status online or through the iVisa app for real-time updates.
