Good info. Thanks. I still cannot makes sense of your coordinates and neither can google maps. Clarification?

I have been told by the Tamatave immigration that the two month tourist visa can be extended *Indefinite. Its works like that.

1. You come with the 2 Month visa you got on arrival.

2. You got one month extension.

3. You come back and get the same type 2 month visa as you got on arrival.

4. repeat step 2 to 4.

The issue with this is that the one month visa extension occupides two pages in the passport. Its huge red inc stamp penetrated to the other side of the page and they wasted more then two pages. You can try to ask if you want only one stamp.

Step 3 is one small sticker visa.

What happens behind the scenes is obviously the same process they do in Mombasa no need to talk about it.

You can get retirement visa or marriage visa (no need a wife), or anything you want if you have money. So basically the immigration in Tamatave, Mombasa, Pataya etc offer the same "services" no need to be a Tesla millionaire or having any connections. Its 2 min process.

Thanks for the info. It is exactly what I intend to do. After much searching a while ago I found Neddy's post from around 2 years back (I think!) and it sounds much like what you did. IIRC he paid 88 K and did the legwork himself. Being a lazy prick I will probably spend the extra and do just what you did. 32 K to avoid hassles and hoofing it around is well worth it to me. Hell it's only the price of a short time! How's the weather in Tamatave?/ Pissing down?

BTW the coordinates you posted don't seem to make sense. 1809 degrees?

Today I had extended my 2 month visa in Tamatave 1809'15.7"S 4924'51.6"E.

Officer propose two options.

1. hard which I need to visit multple office which mean no visa.

2. Easy way which I need to do nothing.

I told him option 2.

He took us to a photoshop to print both flights to Tana and from Tana. Also we photocopied our passports and visas and finally we took 2 passport photos. All that time the police officer took care of everything. He actually left the office and went with us. The location of this photo shop is just next to that government office.

I paid 120 K and 20 K Tip. End of story.

You never paid before and never paid after as you never been in mada this is clear already long time ago. But internet works good from mums basement.

Saying the guy who tried to corrupt Rwandese police LOL. I have been in places in Mada you will never go so don't patronize me and go back to mummy.

Thank you Amadeuss and Muzungufotsy.

Man I can't wait to get there it has been way too long if all restrictions drop as well that would be dope.

No need to shout! Yes, its common in countries where you deal with freelancers to give the money once she leaves.

But go to any FKK or order an Escort online: once the girl is in your room, first thing she is asking is money on the table, because she has to report it to her pimp.

Its even the case in the few brothels in Mada.

Did I write in capital letters? No so I didn't shout. This is shout. See the difference?

I m just tired of guys acting like pussy in front of girls.

We are talking about FL here so having a reference to FKK is pointless and nobody orders an escort in mada. Even in the massage ripoff joints in mada people pay after.

I never paid before neither in mada nor anywhere. My money my rules. Period.

[Amadeuss]

Why in hell would you pay before? You want to get lousy service? Always pay after. That s the rule number 1 everywhere on this planet.

When you read that everything in Tana is NORMAL you will shortly realized the Normal means no restriction at all in all aspects of the daily life. For exmple I see that around 80% walking with masks but inside clubs no one wear any mask. Social distancing? No such things. Well the world already moves away from Covid and Tana has Zero restrictions in this regards.

Cottiss transport has a new office in front of Tripolista Hotel, In fact it's just a small stand. I bought a ticket to Tanatave for the VIP for 60 K. For eating the is a new extension of Gastro Pizza next to glacier. It's a huge*place, two floors with have a coffee shop downstairs and on the second floor food. New proposition is the combo for 10 K the cost double in Pizza Gastro.

Sexy girls in the daytime are everyware, just go and take a contact number or better the FB messenger. Antananarivo weather is perfect nearly zero rain so far.

The lack of tourist is evident, if Tana was an easy place for mongering now I feel that its even easier. (girls ae eager due to 2 years closure) I just came here from Colombia, DR and Mexico. No country will beat Mada for price, girls and the effortless you can bring girls to your room.

Very nice boots on the ground reports from nio and pokeris. I hope I can finally make it there in early April as well.

Reading many reports it seems to me like standard is paying after. Would that also apply to tamatave cottis brothels and glacier hardcore hookers or is it always just very relaxed?

I am hoping Air Mauritius starts to fly again by the time I want to go. Normally I arrive from SEA and they are by far the easiest route from there.

Pokeris, where do you figure you will apply for your extra month visa extension? I will be doing the same thing and will be interested to see how that process goes. Good luck and thanks for posting so those of us not going soon can live vicariously! I am jealous.

I don't know where I will do probably in nosybe I still have 2 month almost. I hope till this time flights to nosybe will open and I can extend my visa at airport at nosy.
