Mahajanga - Clearance

Nov 21, 2016

ALERT August 21st, 2024: Due to concerns over a multi-country outbreak of Cholera in the Indian Ocean, Madagscar is refusing entry to foreign yachts coming from a number of Indian Ocean countries. See the Clearance section for the latest details.

This is a Port of Entry.

See the main Noonsite/Madagascar/formalities page for the full details of clearance.

Mahajanga is a reasonable place to do exit clearance if bound for South Africa, but not planning to sail as far south along the coast as Tulear. It is reported to be quick and easy.

Clearance with immigration/police is inside the port, behind the blue gate (see photo courtesy of SY Totem).
