Confirm these fees before you book so your operator plan and day budget match what you will pay onsite.
Nosy Tanikely park admission is the clearest verified local mandatory activity fee for park visitors, including scuba and snorkeling day trips. The park lists 40,000 Ar per foreign adult, 4,000 Ar for a child aged 6-12, 5,000 Ar per Malagasy adult and 1,000 Ar per Malagasy child. Operators sometimes quote park admission separately, so avoid double-counting and obtain the correct ticket. Tourist visa or short-arrival administration costs depend on the lawful chosen entry method. Optional Lokobe entrance and guide charges are different from Tanikely marine entry. The official Lokobe park page points to a separate price reference; a dated secondary local review reports 55,000 Ar per foreign adult in 2026 but the national-park fee sheet was not independently validated in this packet. The Mount Passot ticket pages reportedly conflict, so no fixed Mount Passot price is asserted. No validated Sakatia-wide conservation charge, whale-shark government ticket, scuba-course permit or freedive permit is assumed.

Confirm whether your operator includes the charge. The park's online-only wording conflicts with a reference to its Hell-Ville office. |
| Nosy Tanikely Marine National Park: foreign child 6-12 | 4,000 MGA (Ar) Per park visit; confirm age evidence | Foreign children aged 6 to 12 | Official park ticket platform or operator-arranged admission | Park-published child tariff. The visible source does not establish every policy for infants or other ages; ask the park. |
| Nosy Tanikely Marine National Park: Malagasy visitor | 5,000 MGA (Ar) adult; 1,000 MGA (Ar) child Per visit; resident/national eligibility must be confirmed | Malagasy nationals according to park tariff | Official park ticket platform or park guidance | Park tariffs list reduced national categories; do not assume foreign residency qualifies. |
| Online tourist eVisa: 1-15 days | EUR 30 or USD 35, as separately published official tariffs Single-entry online tourist eVisa; confirm intended duration | Travelers selecting this online eVisa category, subject to eligibility | Official application domain: https://evisamada.gov.mg | The 2026 eVisa tariff table shows EUR 30 and the portal says fees are the same on arrival. However, France Diplomatie describes a EUR 10 arrival administration fee below 15 days. Official claims conflict; confirm current price before travel. |
| Online tourist eVisa: 16-30 days | EUR 35 or USD 41, as separately published official tariffs Single entry; check dates and passport | Travelers applying for a 16-30-day tourist eVisa | Official application domain: https://evisamada.gov.mg | eVisa tariff table.

| Online tourist eVisa: 31-60 days | EUR 40 or USD 47, as separately published official tariffs Single entry for the selected 31-60-day category; confirm authorized dates with immigration | Travelers applying for a 31-60-day tourist eVisa | Official application domain: https://evisamada.gov.mg | eVisa information lists this category, but its 60-day maximum wording conflicts with a separate 61-90-day tariff column. Confirm eligibility, permitted stay and any extension procedure with Madagascar immigration; do not assume that the longer fee category grants permission. |
| Short-stay tourist arrival administration fee | EUR 10 per September 2026 French consular advice; CONFLICTS with eVisa portal EUR 30 short-stay and same-on-arrival claims Up to 15 days, subject to traveler eligibility and current rule | Eligible international arrivals using the short-stay pathway | Arrival immigration if current local rules confirm this route; seek official confirmation first | France Diplomatie, the airline and UK advice report this price, but the government-branded eVisa service states online and arrival fees are equal and lists EUR 30 for 1-15 days. Unresolved official-source conflict: EUR 10 is not guaranteed. |
| Lokobe National Park admission | 55,000 MGA (Ar) per foreign adult reported in October 2026; unverified against current park tariff document Reported day entry; confirm at the park and with guide | Optional Lokobe land excursion | Madagascar National Parks approved park reception or included in a verified guided excursion | A dated local review cites this 2026 rate. The park manager refers visitors to a separate official fee schedule, and guide charges can be additional. Confirm before publication or payment. |
| Mount Passot access | Amount disputed in source material; confirm with ticket office Per visit, if applicable | Optional Mount Passot hill visit | On-site management or excursion that explicitly includes admission | An October 2026 comparison identifies inconsistent 10,000 versus 15,000 Ar pages for foreign adults. No single price passes source conflict checks. |
