We continue to advise do not travel to Haiti. Toussaint-Louverture International Airport has temporarily suspended all operations due to gang violence. Travel across Port-au-Prince, including to and from the airport had been affected.
A State of Emergency is in place countrywide in response to gang violence. The security situation remains volatile. Violent crime is common, including murder, armed robbery, kidnapping, assault, sexual assault and carjacking. Air, land and sea borders between Haiti and the Dominican Republic are closed. Airports are open but can be difficult to access due to the highly volatile security situation. You should consider leaving the country if it’s safe to do so.
We advise:
Do not travel to Haiti overall due to the dangerous security situation, threat of violent crime, kidnapping and severe shortages of basic necessities including fuel, water and food.
