Berlin, Deutschland - The Federal Foreign Office published the current travel warnings for different countries on June 8, 2025. These warnings are important for German citizens who live or travel abroad. The security situation is continuously monitored and corresponding warnings are pronounced depending on the risk assessment. The travel warning represents the highest risk level that travelers urgently advise against traveling to certain countries. LVZ reports , about the numerous countries that are currently affected by travel warnings.

Current travel warnings concern Afghanistan, Iran, Haitien and Ukraine. Countries such as Libya, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Yemen also fall under these critical security conditions. The situation in Ukraine is a special danger, where in addition to the travel warning, a request for departure for Germans living in the country was also pronounced. The full list of countries with current travel warnings (e.g. Egypt, Ethiopia, Iraq, but also the uncertain Belarus) shows that the danger situation varies greatly worldwide.

Information on dangers and recommendations

An important distinction in the context of travel warnings is the difference between travel warning, safety note and travel information. While a travel warning indicates a concrete danger to life and life, security information about general risks and travel instructions provide information on entry requirements and medical recommendations. In addition, travel warnings are not a general ban on travel, but leave it open to travelers to decide themselves. Nevertheless, you should follow the latest messages and, if necessary, contact your message or the consulate for further information.

The global danger of terrorist attacks is still present, as is the Foreign Office . Especially after the latest terrorist attacks against Israel in October 2023, terrorist organizations such as Al Qaeda and the Islamic State are threatened with further attacks. The risks are variable and represent a serious threat in many countries, especially in conflict -based regions. Popular destinations of attacks are places with high human volume, sights and transport infrastructure.
