We’ve reviewed our travel advice for Gabon and continue to advise exercise a high degree of caution. A transitional government has been in place since a military takeover in August 2023. Authorities continue to maintain a higher security alert level in Libreville and other areas. A nightly curfew is currently in place but may change without notice. Protests and civil unrest may occur with little warning (see ‘Safety’).

We advise:

Exercise a high degree of caution in Gabon due to the threat of violent crime.
