Safety
- Before
- Syria remains high-risk after more than a decade of war: unexploded ordnance, sporadic fighting, terrorism and arbitrary detention are real dangers, and consular help is minimal — most governments advise against all travel. Security varies sharply by region and can change overnight.
- After
- The UK government advises against all travel to Syria because of unpredictable security conditions and the threat of terrorist attacks, and it cannot provide consular support from within Syria. There is a very high threat of kidnapping by terrorist groups, and landmines and other unexploded weapons remain, especially in less populated and rural areas.

Syria
Passport validity

- Your passport must be valid for at least 3 months after the date you arrive. Rules are applied inconsistently during the transition, so more validity is safer.
- After
- Your passport must be valid for at least 3 months after the date you arrive, according to the UK government. Germany's Federal Foreign Office tells its citizens six months, so more validity is safer.

Syria
FAQ: visa on arrival

Arrange the visa through a Syrian embassy before booking.

The UK, Canadian, German and Australian governments all say their citizens need one in advance, and Canada says non-Arab nationals cannot obtain one at Syrian border points. Syria has announced an online eVisa, but its website was not yet taking applications in late September 2026, so ask a Syrian embassy how to apply.
