Travel safety

Official advice for every country, plus practical guidance for safer trips.

Governments publish travel advice for their own citizens. We show advice from the US Department of State and the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office side by side, with links to the full text and the date each was last updated. We do not add our own safety ratings.

How to read travel advisories

The US uses four levels, from "Exercise normal precautions" to "Do not travel". The UK advises against all travel or all but essential travel to specific areas or whole countries. A country may have different advice for different regions.

1. Exercise normal precautions
2. Exercise increased caution
3. Reconsider travel
4. Do not travel

Practical guidance

Stay safe

There are many things that you can do to ensure that you stay safe while traveling. Wikivoyage articles have a "Stay safe" section with location specific advice.

Stay healthy

Whether you have a "staycation" or travel to the farthest corners of the Earth, you will be able to enjoy your travels more if you stay healthy. This article presents an introduction to good practices: how to live healthy, minimize risks to your health, and deal with injuries and ill health if you encounter them while you are away from home.

Tips for women travellers

Women who travel — especially solo women travellers — often enjoy some particular benefits. However, they also encounter some particular challenges and risks.

Travellers with disabilities

Disabilities do not have to make travel impossible. Most high-income nations have implemented strict requirements for accessibility by law in recent decades, and the US legislation on that topic even served as a model for a UN agreement.

Emergency numbers are listed on each country page.
