As the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks approaches, the U.S. Embassy in Georgetown, Guyana reminds U.S. citizens of the need for caution and awareness of personal security.
Review your personal security plans; remain aware of your surroundings, including local events; and monitor local news stations for updates. Maintain a high level of vigilance, take appropriate steps to enhance your personal security and follow instructions of local authorities. We strongly recommend that U.S. citizens traveling to or residing in Guyana enroll in the Department of State's Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP).

If you don't have Internet access, enroll directly with the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate.
