@udenihas I don't have the full answer, but I'm going to suggest that it could be complicated. I think you'll have to establish that you have a company in Madagascar, especially if you want to hold currency in something other than Ariary. There are also banks, like the Commercial Bank of Mauritius, that have branches in Antananarivo. I can't imagine trying to open an account and be in business here without visiting in person. You will want to consider the tax implications of the decisions you make.
