Overview

Health certificate for Madagascar: what and why

An export health certificate confirms that a consignment of food or animal products was inspected and is fit for human consumption. It is common for meat, seafood, dairy, eggs, honey and processed food. Health certificates for food and animal products are issued by the competent Indian authority for the product, such as export inspection or animal quarantine authorities.

Food imports into African markets are checked against health requirements, and legalised certificates help clear consignments without delay.

Authorities, banks and business partners in Madagascar usually ask for a legalised health certificate for food import clearance, veterinary or food safety approval or retail and distributor registration.

A health certificate issued in India is attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, then by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), and finally legalised by the Embassy of Madagascar in New Delhi.
