We continue to advise exercise a high degree of caution in Papua New Guinea due to high levels of crime, tribal violence and civil unrest. Higher levels apply in some areas.
Landowner blockades on the Kokoda Track may disrupt treks. Check with your trekking company for the latest information.
Ongoing fuel shortages can disrupt domestic travel, including air travel, with little or no notice. Protests, civil disorder and tribal violence can escalate quickly. Avoid areas where violence occurs and be alert to personal safety risks. Monitor the local media for updates.
We advise:
Exercise a high degree of caution in Papua New Guinea overall due to high levels of serious crime.
Higher levels apply in some areas.
