We continue to advise do not travel to Niger. The security situation remains highly volatile and there’s ongoing political instability following a military takeover in July 2023. Movement restrictions may be implemented at short notice. There’s a high risk of terrorism, and terrorists may target places visited by foreigners, government buildings and security facilities. There’s a high risk of kidnapping across Niger. Foreigners are particularly at risk. Some land borders remain closed, and others may close without warning. Trying to leave Niger by land borders is likely to be dangerous. Authorities have been conducting increased security checks on foreigners arriving in Niger by air. This may result in your passport being held by authorities for several days.

We continue to advise:

Do not travel to Niger due to the volatile security environment, including the threat of terrorism, kidnapping and violent crime.
