Niger

There is political instability in Niger. The security situation remains highly volatile.

Protests and civil unrest are expected to continue. Protests can turn violent quickly and without notice. Avoid government buildings, demonstrations, large crowds and political gatherings. A curfew is in place between midnight and 5am. Additional restrictions may be implemented at short notice.

There is a high risk of terrorism. Be aware of your surroundings. Terrorists may target places foreigners visit, including hotels, cafes and restaurants. Be alert to threats, especially near government buildings, security facilities, international organisations, diplomatic buildings and police stations.

Some land borders remain closed, and others may close without warning. Trying to leave Niger by land borders is likely to be dangerous. We advise do not travel to several countries neighbouring Niger, including Burkina Faso, Mali, Libya, and Chad. We also advise do not travel to Algeria, Nigeria, and Benin's border areas with Niger. For further information see the travel advice for each destination.

If you cannot depart or decide to stay in Niger, limit your movements, follow the curfew, and avoid protests. Keep a supply of water, food and medicine. Stay in contact with family and friends.

We continue to advise do not travel to Niger. The Australian High Commission in Abuja has very limited capacity to provide consular assistance in Niger.

We continue to advise: 

Do not travel to Niger due to the high threat of kidnapping, terrorist attack, crime and the volatile security environment.
