Visitor visas on arrival are now limited to 30 days. There are still unexploded weapons from WWII in some parts of the Solomon Islands, including central Honiara. If you find one, don’t touch it (see ‘Travel’).

There’s an increase of mosquito borne illnesses, including Malaria and Dengue fever (see ‘Health’).

Petty crime, break-ins, robbery and more serious offences including sexual assault can occur (see ‘Safety’).

We advise:

Exercise normal safety precautions in Solomon Islands overall.

Higher levels apply in some areas.
