  1. Marshall Islands

    FAQ

    Before
    No, it is not an entry requirement and nobody checks it. Given how far Majuro is from a full hospital, insurance that explicitly covers medical evacuation is the single most valuable thing to arrange before you fly, especially if you intend to dive.
    After
    No official source we could read makes travel insurance a condition of entry. The UK government advises comprehensive insurance covering all medical costs, including medical evacuation, because medical facilities are very limited.

  2. Marshall Islands

    FAQ

    Before
    Only with permission. Bikini, Enewetak and Rongelap are governed by their atoll councils and the national government, and access depends on an authorized charter or liveaboard operating that season. Do not plan on turning up in Majuro and arranging it there. The approvals and the boat both need months of notice.

  3. Marshall Islands

    Tip

    Before
    Do not drink the tap water. Most supply is rainwater catchment and droughts strain it. Stick to bottled or boiled water, and bring small-denomination US dollars, since ATMs are limited to Majuro and Ebeye and can be empty.
    After
    Australia's Smartraveller advises drinking boiled or bottled water, and says there are only a few ATMs, none of them at the airport, and that the departure fee must be paid in US dollars cash.

  4. Marshall Islands

    Tip

    Before
    Bikini, Enewetak, Rongelap and other atolls affected by the nuclear testing program are not casual destinations — visits need permission from the atoll council or the national government, and Bikini diving depends on a charter operating that season. Kwajalein island requires US military sponsorship, though Ebeye does not.
    After
    (removed)

  5. Marshall Islands

    Tip

    Before
    Majuro is reached mainly by the United island-hopper between Honolulu and Guam and by Nauru Airlines from Brisbane, each running only a few times a week. A missed or canceled flight can cost you several days, so leave buffer time and never book a tight onward international connection.
    After
    International flights are few, so leave buffer time and avoid tight onward international connections.

  6. Marshall Islands

    Tip

    Before
    Medical care is basic. Majuro Hospital handles routine emergencies, Ebeye has a clinic, and the outer atolls have health assistants only. Anything serious means a flight to Honolulu or Guam. Carry your own medications with prescriptions, and insurance that names medical evacuation.
    After
    The UK government says medical facilities are very limited. Bring enough prescription medicine for your stay, and insurance that covers all medical costs including medical evacuation.

  7. Marshall Islands

    Customs notes

    Before
    Quarantine rules cover fresh food, plants, seeds and soil. Declare anything organic, including fruit picked up on the island-hopper. | Firearms and ammunition are prohibited without prior authorization, and are taken seriously at Majuro's small airport. | Visiting Bikini, Enewetak, Rongelap and other atolls affected by the US nuclear testing program requires permission from the local atoll council or the national government — arrange it long before you arrive. | Kwajalein island hosts a US Army garrison and is not open to casual visitors: access needs US military sponsorship, separate from your RMI entry permission. Neighboring Ebeye is not restricted in the same way.
    After
    The UK government says it is illegal to import firearms, ammunition and drugs.

  8. Marshall Islands

    Best time to visit

    Before
    December to April is the drier, breezier half of the year and the most comfortable time to travel; May to November brings heavier rain. The Marshalls sit at the eastern edge of the typhoon belt, so tropical storms are possible mainly late in the wet season.
    After
    Canada's travel advice says the rainy (monsoon) season runs from July to November, when severe rainstorms can cause flooding.

  9. Marshall Islands

    Payments

    Before
    The country uses the US dollar, which removes any exchange problem, but acceptance is the issue: a few hotels, the larger stores and dive operators in Majuro take cards, and ATMs exist in Majuro and Ebeye but can run out of notes. Outer atolls are entirely cash. Bring small US bills for the whole trip.
    After
    Australia's Smartraveller says the currency is the US dollar and that many businesses in Majuro and Ebeye take credit cards but others do not; there are only a few ATMs and none at the airport, and the airport departure fee must be paid in US dollars cash.

    tips

  14. Malta

    customs.notes

    Before
    No limits on goods for personal use when arriving from another EU country.
    After
    Between EU countries, goods bought for your own use with taxes paid are not taxed again; customs can ask you to show that larger quantities are not for resale.

  15. Malta

    bestTimeToVisit.text

    Before
    April–June and September–October offer warm weather without the peak-summer heat and crowds; the sea stays swimmable into late October. July and August are hot, busy and expensive.
    After
    No official seasonal guidance. The Government of Canada notes that heavy rains regularly cause flash flooding on Malta's roads.

  18. Mali

    FAQ

    Before
    Yes. Carry an International Certificate of Vaccination. It is requested with visa applications and checked on arrival at Bamako-Sénou airport.
    After
    Yes. Carry an International Certificate of Vaccination against yellow fever with your passport.

  19. Mali

    FAQ

    Before
    No — most Western governments advise against travel to all or most of Mali. Jihadist insurgency affects the north and center, attacks and kidnappings have reached areas near Bamako, and the country is governed by a military junta. Any travel needs serious security planning.
    After
    No. The UK and Canadian governments both advise against all travel to Mali; Canada cites the threat of terrorism, kidnapping, banditry and fuel shortages. Any travel needs serious security planning.

  20. Mali

    Tip

    Before
    Bring euros in cash. The CFA franc is pegged to the euro and exchanges easily in Bamako, while cards and ATMs cannot be relied on anywhere in the country.
    After
    Bring enough cash. Canada's travel advice says credit cards are rarely accepted outside a few major hotels and that ATM access is limited outside Bamako.

  21. Mali

    Tip

    Before
    Do not photograph military personnel, checkpoints, government buildings or bridges — cameras and phones can be confiscated and detention is possible under the current military government.
    After
    Do not photograph military or government installations — the UK Foreign Office and Canada both warn against it — and ask permission before photographing people.

  23. Mali

    Best time to visit

    Before
    November to February is the cooler dry season and the only comfortable window — from March temperatures climb well above 40°C, and the June–September rains follow. Check security advice before planning any travel.
    After
    No official source we could read gives seasonal travel guidance for Mali.

  24. Mali

    Payments

    Before
    Mali is a cash economy. Cards work only at a few Bamako hotels and banks. Bring euros to exchange (the CFA franc is pegged to the euro) and carry enough cash for your whole stay.
    After
    Canada's travel advice says credit cards are rarely accepted outside a few major hotels and that access to ATMs is limited outside Bamako. Exchange facilities are often slow.
