Arrival cards and declarations: Health declaration form and screening (Ebola measures)

21 days

The UK government says that, because of the Ebola outbreak, all travellers must complete a health declaration form, declare any travel through an affected country in the previous 21 days, and undergo health screening on arrival. If you have been in or transited through an affected country in the last 21 days you may not be allowed to enter unless exempt (Malagasy nationals, foreign residents, work or student visa holders, diplomats and international-organisation or NGO staff), and exempt travellers must complete a 21-day quarantine at an approved location at their own cost.

Customs allowances

EUR 7,500

The UK government says foreign cash or travellers' cheques worth EUR 7,500 or more must be declared — keep the certified declaration, or the money could be seized when you leave — and that you may bring in up to 400,000 Malagasy ariary. Canada's travel advice says to declare foreign currency in excess of EUR 10,000 on arrival and that ariary may not be exported.
