Equatorial Guinea travel advice

Travellers wishing to travel outside Malabo on the island of Bioko, or outside Bata on the mainland, will need to inform the Protocol Division of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Cooperation and Francophonie in advance.

The threat from terrorism is low, but you should be aware of the global risk of indiscriminate terrorist attacks, which could be against civilian targets, including places frequented by foreigners.

There are regular reports of petty theft.
