Travel advice for individual countries worldwide, including the level of caution recommended, is available on my Department's website at .

This advice is published in order to make useful information available to assist Irish citizens in making well informed decisions when planning their trips and when travelling. Irish Embassies closely monitor developments in countries to which they are accredited and, together with the Department's Consular Division, advise on events or developments of which our citizens should be aware while travelling or working abroad.

This travel advice is updated as necessary to reflect developments in the relevant countries, and kept under ongoing review so as to ensure up to date and important information is provided to Irish citizens.

My Department promotes this information through our website at the webpage given above. It is also my Department's practice to issue further, and particularly urgent, travel advice updates using the twitter feed @dfatravel.
