Rules in force · 9Nine African countries on this site have no trip line bec…Carry an original yellow fever vaccination certificate on…Uneven pavements and traffic
- Africa ↗When a route touches a yellow-fever country — even a transit of 12 hours or more — keep the original yellow card (ICVP) in your hand luggage; health desks and airlines can refuse boarding or entry without it.
- Africa ↗Nine African countries on this site have no trip line because governments advise against travel; several others have no-go regions. Read your government's advice for every country on the route before paying deposits.
- West Africa ↗Carry an original yellow fever vaccination certificate on any West African trip: several countries on the coast road demand it of every arrival, and the rest demand it after you have passed through a neighbour.
- West Africa ↗Cross land borders and drive between cities in daylight only; plan each crossing as a full travel day with cash for fees and passport copies for checkpoints.
- Togo ↗Check visa and entry rules for your passport on official Togolese government sources before booking.
- Togo ↗Governments advise against travel to parts of the far north (Savanes region) near the Burkina Faso border; check your own government's advice.
- Lomé and the Coast ↗Avoid driving outside the city after dark: roads are poorly lit and vehicles are unlit.
- Lomé ↗Uneven pavements and traffic: bags go from the car to the hotel door, never on a walk.
- Lomé ↗After dark, take a car or a hotel-booked taxi door to door; do not walk between areas.
