The yellow fever vaccine is mandatory for entering the country.
Diseases
Hygiene

Safety
Crime and Delinquency
Crime is relatively low in Gabon, though it has been increasing recently. While there’s no need to be "paranoid," basic precautions and common sense are essential.
Scams and "Tourist" Harassment
Socio-Political Risks

Foreign Consulates in Gabon
If you encounter problems while traveling abroad, your country’s consular services can assist you. Additionally, if you’re an EU citizen and your country isn’t represented, you can contact any other EU member state’s consulate.
