Mahavonjy Services.
When something gets stuck in Madagascar (occupied land, an inheritance that won't move, a file stuck in an administration, goods held at customs), we get it moving again, through official channels only.
In Malagasy, "Mahavonjy" means "the one who comes to help". For more than thirty years, on the ground, our founder and a network of legal advisors, lawyers, notaries, freight forwarders and experts have supported families, the diaspora and investors. One point of contact, from the first call to the solution.
We look at every request honestly: if it's not for us, we refer you to the right professional.
Describe your situation in three minutes on this website: the first thirty-minute call is free. And if it's urgent, message us on WhatsApp, twenty-four seven.

We see it through to the end
You're kept informed at every step, including when things stall, until the document is issued or the decision is made.
We look at every request before we commit.
We don't say yes to everything. Each situation is examined carefully: if it falls outside our expertise, or if our team can't give it the time it deserves, we tell you plainly. We then refer you to a trusted professional, or we decline. Our goal isn't to take on every case, but for every client to be satisfied.
- An honest answer, even when it's no.
- The right professional, when it's not for us.
- A commitment only when we can keep it.

Miadana Rasoloarivony
CEO, over 30 years of hands-on experience
For more than thirty years, on the ground, Miadana Rasoloarivony has been helping individuals, families and businesses with their affairs in Madagascar, and knows both how the system works and where it gets stuck. The approach: first understand each person's situation and expectations, then move forward efficiently and with full transparency. Mahavonjy Services grew out of that experience: bringing together, around a single point of contact, all the skills a difficult case requires.
Cases that move forward, through official channels.
- A quote before we start
- You know the cost and the steps before you commit. No surprise fees along the way.
- Official channels only
- We move cases forward through the proper procedures, never through informal payments.
- One point of contact
- Even when several professionals are involved, one person follows your case and answers your questions.
- Confidentiality
- Your information and documents are used for your case, and nothing else.
Your questions
All questionsAre you a law firm or a notary's office?
Mahavonjy Services is a consulting and support firm. Our legal advisors analyze your situation, prepare the paperwork and follow up on the procedures. When a notarial deed or representation in court is needed, we work with partner notaries and lawyers, and we remain your single point of contact.
How much does your support cost?
The first 30-minute call is free: we tell you what's possible, how long it will take and what it will cost. The in-depth consultation, in person in Antananarivo or by video call, is paid, and you're told the price in advance. For full case support, you receive a written quote that lists our partners' fees separately. Nothing goes ahead without your agreement, and you're welcome to make us your own proposal.
I live abroad. Can I do everything remotely?
Yes, in the vast majority of cases. We talk by video call or phone, you send us your scanned documents, and if a signature is needed in Madagascar, we prepare a power of attorney that you have legalized where you live.
Do you handle emergencies?
Yes, that's what we're here for. You can message us on WhatsApp 24/7 and book a free call any day, sometimes within hours. The more details you give in your first message, the faster we can act.
