Advice for travellers to the Syrian Arab Republic

The Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs advises against all travel to the whole of Syria; Hungarian citizens in Syria are urged to leave the country immediately.

Those who choose to remain in Syria or to visit against our advice should be aware that the assistance of the Hungarian Embassy in Damascus could be restricted according to the security circumstances prevail in the country. Possibilities for consular access or consular protection are also reduced.

The Hungarian Embassy has assumed the role of Protecting Power for British, Canadian and Australian interests in Syria.
