Summary Still current at: 20 February 2023 Updated: 20 February 2023 Latest update: New information about Tropical Cyclone Freddy

Before you travel, check the ‘Entry requirements’ section for Madagascar’s current entry restrictions and requirements. These may change with little warning. Monitor this advice for the latest updates and stay in contact with your travel provider.

If you plan to pass through another country to return to the UK, check the travel advice for the country you’re transiting.

It is more important than ever to get travel insurance and check it provides sufficient cover. See the FCDO’s guidance on foreign travel insurance.

The cyclone season in Madagascar normally runs from November to April. Coastal areas are particularly affected, and remote areas throughout the country can become inaccessible and suffer damage and contamination to water supplies.

Intense Tropical Cyclone Freddy is forecast to make landfall on the east coast of Madagascar, near Mananjara, at around 9pm on Tuesday 21 February. Authorities have issued a danger warning for all coastal districts between Toamasina and Farafangana and inland for the regions of Vakinankaratra and Haute Matsiatra. Very strong winds, high waves, heavy rain, coastal surges, and flooding are expected. You should monitor the progress of approaching storms and follow alerts and instructions from the local authorities.
