Important Notes

Madagascar citizens are not eligible for the Visa Waiver Program. All applicants for B1/B2 (business/tourism) visas must attend an interview at the U.S. Embassy in Antananarivo. Processing times can vary significantly based on embassy workload and interview availability, often taking several weeks to months to secure an appointment. The validity and maximum stay duration are determined by the consular officer at the time of approval and can vary greatly (e.g., 5 years validity, 6 months maximum stay per entry). The cost listed is for the standard B1/B2 visa application fee. Additional fees may apply for specific circumstances.
