The Republic of Côte d’Ivoire is located in western Africa bordered by Ghana, Liberia, Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso, and with coastline on the North Atlantic Ocean. The population is about 22 million people. The government is a presidential republic with a president as chief of state and a prime minister as head of government.
Côte d’Ivoire achieved independence from France in 1960, and for the next 30 years enjoyed stability and a prosperous, well-developed economy. After a coup in 1999, however, the country has suffered through ethnic and religious strife, civil war, and political instability.
The political crisis at the end of 2010 led tourists to look to other destinations for holidays. The government is attempting to improve the image of Côte d’Ivoire and promote tourism. Travellers can visit nine national parks (some of which are UNESCO World Heritage parks), beaches, the city of Yamoussoukro, or the district of Le Plateau in Abidjan.

個人の安全性
There is a high risk of crime in Côte d’Ivoire. Petty crime, such as pickpocketing and bag snatching does occur, especially in crowded areas. Abidjan and the Yamoussoukro highway are identified as one of the high risk areas. Keep valuables out of sight.
Armed robbery has occurred in restaurants and businesses. Carjackings, and even bus-jackings, have occurred.
If driving, make sure windows are up and doors locked. In many areas of Côte d’Ivoire, road conditions and the condition of vehicles may be poor. Drivers may not respect the rules of the road. Avoid road travel at night if possible.
When driving, you may encounter checkpoints, particularly after dark, and your vehicle may be searched. Always carry necessary identification. Armed groups may establish illegal roadblocks, sometimes on main roads.
Do not use public transportation. Avoid using taxis as well.
Exercise caution when swimming as currents may be strong and unpredictable and drownings occur frequently.
While there are no laws against same-sex relationships in this country, the social stigma is serious. Police and other official personnel have been known to discriminate against, and abuse, members of the gay community.
In Abidjan, some reports indicate the security situation has improved. However, there is still a risk of crime here, including carjackings, robbery, and theft. If driving, keep doors locked and windows up, particularly on the main road between Abidjan and Yamoussoukro. Avoid walking across the Houphoet-Boigny and the De Gaulle bridges to Le Plateau where people have been mugged and robbed at any time of the day or night.
Severe rains can cause flooding, infrastructure damage, and may disrupt travel plans. Monitor weather reports closely and heed advice of local authorities.

Foreigners have been kidnapped and killed.

Always avoid large public gatherings and demonstrations since the situation can turn violent unexpectedly.
