Laos

There is increasing lawlessness and a risk of terrorist action. Be security conscious. Attacks have occurred on buses on Vientiane/Luang Prabang (Route 13). Avoid travel on Routes 6 and 7. We recommend you travel only in daylight hours.

New Zealanders travelling to or resident in Laos should have comprehensive medical and travel insurance policies that include provision for medical evacuation by air.
