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:
Health
As always, it’s best to be up to date with your vaccinations, even if nothing is officially required to enter the country.
Diseases
Curaçao doesn’t pose any significant health risks.
Hygiene
There are no real risks here either, and the water is drinkable everywhere. Just remember to stay hydrated, protect yourself from the sun during the hottest periods, and wash your hands regularly.

Crime and Delinquency
There are no major issues, though of course, it’s best to avoid reckless behavior and follow basic travel precautions (don’t flaunt wealth, avoid wandering alone at night, etc.).
Scams and "Tourist" Harassment
Socio-Political Risks
Nothing to report.
Climate, Nature, and Animals
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’re a citizen of the European Union and your country isn’t represented, you can contact any other EU member state’s representation.
