US Issues Level 3 Travel Advisory for Trinidad and Tobago Amid State of Emergency
The U.S. State Department has issued a Level 3 travel advisory for Trinidad and Tobago, advising Americans to reconsider travel due to a nationwide State of Emergency (SOE) prompted by rising crime rates, including terrorism and kidnapping. The SOE, initially declared on December 30, 2024, has been extended until April 2025, granting local authorities expanded powers to arrest individuals suspected of illegal activities and search properties without immediate charges. The advisory warns that areas in the capital, Port of Spain, are considered high-risk, particularly after dark, and highlights recent incidents of kidnappings involving U.S. nationals. Enhanced security measures have led to restrictions on U.S. government employees regarding travel to certain neighborhoods. Several cruise lines have also reduced or eliminated their stops in Port of Spain due to safety concerns. Travelers are urged to take precautions, including purchasing travel insurance and avoiding displays of wealth.
