TravelWarnings Warning Travellers are advised against all travel to the town of Birao, close to CAR’s border with Chad and Sudan, after it fell to unidentified rebel fighters on 30 October 2006.

All but essential travel to the Central African Republic is advised against. The north and west of the country, especially the areas bordering Cameroon and Chad, is particularly dangerous and should be avoided. It is no longer safe to travel by any of the road routes between CAR and Cameroon even without a military/police escort. The border with Sudan is closed.

Although elections were held successfully in May 2005, order has yet to be restored to much of the country outside Bangui, particularly in the north of the country. Those who must travel outside Bangui are strongly recommended to check first on the current situation in the areas through which travel is planned.

The threat from terrorism is low but visitors should be aware of the global risk of indiscriminate terrorist attacks, which could be against civilian targets, including places frequented by foreigners.

This advice is based on information provided by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in the UK. It is correct at time of publishing. As the situation can change rapidly, visitors are advised to contact the following organisations for the latest travel advice:
