Official Recommendations
In France, both for individuals and professionals, the "travel advice" from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding precautions for each country has legal value. A similar online travel advice system exists in several countries:

Hygiene
Local Healthcare Facilities
Safety
Crime and Delinquency
The crime rate in Rwanda is relatively low. However, there is still a risk of theft in the capital or at markets.
Scams and "Tourist" Harassment
Socio-Political Risks and Terrorism
While the country’s image is still often associated with the events of the mid-1990s, much has changed since then. The terrorist risk in Rwanda is low (though caution is advised near the DRC border), and it is rather internal social issues that may occasionally pose problems.

Foreign Consulates on Site
If you encounter problems while traveling abroad, your country’s consular services can assist you. It’s also worth noting that if you are a citizen of the European Union and your country is not represented, you can contact any other EU member state’s representation.
