Rules in force · 11Nine African countries on this site have no trip line bec…Carry an original yellow fever vaccination certificate on…Do not take an unbooked taxi at the airport or on the street
- Africa ↗When a route touches a yellow-fever country — even a transit of 12 hours or more — keep the original yellow card (ICVP) in your hand luggage; health desks and airlines can refuse boarding or entry without it.
- Africa ↗Nine African countries on this site have no trip line because governments advise against travel; several others have no-go regions. Read your government's advice for every country on the route before paying deposits.
- West Africa ↗Carry an original yellow fever vaccination certificate on any West African trip: several countries on the coast road demand it of every arrival, and the rest demand it after you have passed through a neighbour.
- West Africa ↗Cross land borders and drive between cities in daylight only; plan each crossing as a full travel day with cash for fees and passport copies for checkpoints.
- Nigeria ↗Check visa and entry rules for your passport with the Nigeria Immigration Service or a Nigerian mission; most visitors need a visa arranged before travel.
- Nigeria ↗Governments advise against all or all but essential travel to a number of Nigerian states; check your own government's advice for each state on your route.
- Nigeria ↗Check the yellow-fever vaccination certificate rules for Nigeria before you fly; carry the certificate with your passport.
- Lagos area ↗Check your government’s advice on Lagos State and on the roads you plan to use; keep to the areas and routes it allows.
- Lagos ↗Do not take an unbooked taxi at the airport or on the street: arrange every ride through your hotel, host or a ride-hailing app, and share the plate with someone.
- Lagos ↗Plan one neighbourhood per trip: crossing between the Island, Victoria Island and Lekki can take two to three hours at rush hour (about 06:00–10:00 and 15:00–20:00).
- Lagos ↗Keep a low profile: phones and cameras out of sight, no walking after dark, and no displays of cash or jewellery.
