The Bahamian government warns citizens against traveling to Haiti because of deteriorating security conditions. Gang violence, widespread kidnappings, political instability, and shortages of essential supplies plague the nation. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs released this advisory Thursday evening, citing violent crime risks and limited airport access. Port-au-Prince and surrounding districts face extreme danger from criminal organizations expanding their control beyond the capital.

Several departments remain unsafe for visitors, particularly Artibonite, Centre, Nord-Ouest, Nippes, Ouest, and Grand'Anse regions. Border areas with the Dominican Republic present heightened criminal activity. The Federal Aviation Administration extended its commercial flight ban to Port-au-Prince until September 2025 after violent gang attacks on aircraft. Toussaint Louverture International Airport operates limited domestic services while international flights redirect to Cap-Haïtien and Les Cayes airports.

Armed robbery, murder, rape, and kidnapping occur frequently throughout Haiti. A nationwide state of emergency remains active with enforced curfews and increased police presence. Bahamasair maintains Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday flights from Nassau to Cap-Haïtien for essential travel only.
