US travel advisory: Cameroon — Level 2 (Exercise Increased Caution)

INFO

The US State Department publishes these advisories for your route. Cameroon: Level 2 — Exercise Increased Caution (as of 2026-05-15). Review the country page for the specific areas and risks flagged before you go. This is a US State Department safety perspective, not an entry or boarding rule — it doesn't affect whether you can board, only what to be aware of on the ground.

Malaria-endemic destination: Cameroon (CM)

INFO

Discuss prophylaxis with a travel medicine clinician — the right antimalarial depends on the specific region, your medical history, and any medications you take.
