→ Switzerland visa for Malagasy citizens

Swiss travelers dreaming of Madagascar's unique biodiversity will find the visa process seamless, with an e-visa readily available that permits a generous maximum stay of 90 days, chosen from five distinct tourist visa types. Prepare for an extraordinary shift from Switzerland's alpine landscapes to the sun-drenched shores and dense forests of this Indian Ocean island, home to lemurs found nowhere else on Earth. Journeys from major Swiss airports like Zurich or Geneva typically involve a layover, often in Paris or Nairobi, before reaching Antananarivo (Ivato International Airport) after a flight duration averaging 12-15 hours. While the Malagasy Ariary offers excellent value against the Swiss Franc, having some basic French phrases at hand will greatly enhance your immersive experience in this captivating destination.
