The Trinidad and Tobago government has declared a State of Emergency due to heightened criminal activity (see ‘Safety’). There may be an increased police presence and minor disruptions, such as roadblocks. Curfews may be imposed at short notice. Monitor local media for updates and follow the advice of local authorities.

You require a visa to enter Trinidad and Tobago. You must apply for an e-visa at least 14 business days before travel. (see ‘Travel’)

We advise:

Exercise a high degree of caution in Trinidad and Tobago due to the threat of violent crime.
