Chad

We've reviewed our advice for Chad. We haven't changed the overall level of our advice, do not travel. We continue to advise reconsider your need to travel to the capital N’Djamena. The border with Sudan has been closed until further notice. Chad is extremely dangerous due to the risk of terrorism, kidnapping, civil unrest and violent crime. If you decide to go anyway, seek professional security advice. Avoid crowds, including any demonstrations or protests. Follow the advice of local authorities. Our ability to provide consular services in Chad is extremely limited. For consular assistance, contact the Australian Embassy in Paris (see 'Local contacts').

We continue to advise:

Do not travel to Chad overall due to the significant risk of terrorism, kidnapping, crime and civil unrest.

Other levels apply in some areas.
