Angola
Safety summary
- Before
- Luanda is generally manageable but has significant street crime. Keep valuables out of sight and use trusted drivers at night. Roads outside the cities are poor, landmines remain a hazard off marked routes in some rural provinces, and the interior of Cabinda province should be avoided due to a lingering separatist insurgency.
- After
- Luanda has a high level of crime, some of it violent: avoid walking around, especially alone or after dark, and keep valuables out of sight in traffic. Roads outside the main cities can be poor, and the UK advises against all but essential travel to Cabinda Province, except Cabinda city, because separatist groups have attacked foreigners and there is a risk of kidnap.

Andorra
Safety
- Before
- Andorra is one of the safest places in Europe, with very little crime. The real risks are alpine ones: winter driving, fast-changing mountain weather and ski injuries.
- After
- Street crime is rare, though you should still look after your belongings. Although Andorra has no recent history of terrorism, attacks cannot be ruled out. If you plan to ski, check the weather and avalanche safety advice before you go.
-
Algeria
Safety: border areas
- Before
- Northern cities such as Algiers, Oran and Constantine are generally safe with normal precautions. Western governments advise against travel near the Libyan, Malian and Nigerien borders and parts of the Sahara — far-south desert tourism is done with accredited agencies, which the visa-on-arrival scheme requires anyway.
- After
- Northern cities such as Algiers, Oran and Constantine are generally safe with normal precautions. The UK advises against all travel within 30 km of Algeria's borders with Libya, Mauritania, Mali and Niger and parts of the Tunisian border, and against all but essential travel near the rest of the border with Tunisia — far-south desert tourism is done with accredited agencies, which the visa-on-arrival scheme requires anyway.

Afghanistan
Safety
- Before
- Nearly every government advises against ALL travel to Afghanistan. Terrorist attacks — including against foreigners and religious minorities — kidnapping and arbitrary detention are real risks anywhere in the country, and no embassy can offer meaningful help on the ground.
- After
- The UK government advises against all travel to Afghanistan, even with an organised tour group. The security situation is volatile, there is a high risk of foreigners being detained or kidnapped, terrorists often target places frequented by foreign nationals, and in-person consular help is not possible.
-
Afghanistan
Polio
- Before
- Polio remains endemic in Afghanistan. A booster is recommended, and travelers staying more than 4 weeks may be asked for proof of polio vaccination when leaving.
- After
- When you leave Afghanistan, the authorities may ask for a certificate proving you have had a polio vaccine.
