Current Travel Situation
Madagascar to Indonesia: What You Need to Know
Indonesia has expanded visa on arrival access to many countries, but Madagascar is not included in the standard VOA list. Malagasy passport holders must obtain a visa in advance through the Indonesian embassy. Processing takes 3 to 7 business days.
How to Get There
Indonesian airlines including Garuda and Batik Air serve routes from Africa via the Middle East. Singapore Air and Malaysia Airlines offer connections from Antananarivo to Bali via Kuala Lumpur or Singapore.
Money & Banking
Indonesia uses the Indonesian rupiah (IDR). ATMs are available in tourist areas. Cards are accepted in hotels and major shops. Cash is preferred at smaller warungs, markets, and for transport.
Practical Tips
1. Apply at least 3 weeks before travel as embassy processing can take up to 7 business days.
2. Bali, Jakarta, and Lombok are popular entry points; confirm your entry port in the application.
3. An extendable 60-day visa is the most flexible option for longer stays.
4. Carry USD cash for incidentals as some ATMs in rural Bali areas run low on funds.
5. Health insurance is strongly recommended for Indonesia travel.
