Estonia travel advice

Most visits to Estonia are trouble-free, but travellers should be aware of the global risk of indiscriminate international terrorist attacks, which could be against civilian targets, including places frequented by foreigners.

Petty theft, especially in Tallinn Old Town, is becoming increasingly common.

If driving into Estonia, travellers must have the original V5 C (Vehicle Registration Document).

This advice is based on information provided by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in the UK. It is correct at time of publishing. As the situation can change rapidly, travellers are advised to contact the following organisations for the latest travel advice:
