Warnings and insurance

• Still current at: 21 November 2024
• Updated: 16 August 2024
• Latest update: FCDO now advises you to see our travel advice before travelling to the Afghanistan-Uzbekistan border region and information on a new unified emergency services number being introduced across the country over the course of 2024 ('Regional risks' and 'Getting help' pages).

Your travel insurance could be invalidated if you travel against advice from the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO). Consular support is also severely limited where FCDO advises against travel.

Before you travel

No travel can be guaranteed safe. Read all the advice in this guide as well as support for British nationals abroad which includes:

• advice on preparing for travel abroad and reducing risks
• information for women, LGBT+ and disabled travellers

Travel insurance

If you choose to travel, research your destinations and get appropriate travel insurance. Insurance should cover your itinerary, planned activities and expenses in an emergency.
