Date posted: 07/07/13

Travel Warnings by the U. S. State Department are issued when long-term, protracted conditions that make a country dangerous or unstable lead local State Department personnel to recommend that Americans avoid or carefully consider the risk of travel to that country. A Travel Warning is also issued when the U.S. Government's ability to assist American citizens is constrained due to the closure of an embassy or consulate or because of a drawdown of its staff.
