2008 Warden Information
Consular Warden Message
U.S. Embassy Conakry
Juin 2, 2008
This Warden Message is to inform American citizens that the situation in Guinea is returning to normal, and that the Embassy is lifting its earlier recommendation against traveling to or within Conakry.
However, the Embassy continues to remind American citizens that demonstrations intended to be peaceful can turn confrontational and possibly escalate into violence quickly. The Embassy, therefore, urges U.S. citizens to exercise caution in the vicinity of any protests, and to avoid crowds, political gatherings, and street demonstrations, even if they appear to be peaceful.
If you have questions or concerns about safety or related issues, you are encouraged to contact the Consular Section at the Embassy. During normal business hours - Monday through Thursday 07:30 to 16:30, Friday 07:30 to 13:30 - please call 64-43-47-82. After hours, please call 64-32-43-41. Inquiries or information transmitted by email to the Consular section of the Embassy at ConsularConakr@state.gov will be read the morning of the next business day.
For the latest security information, Americans living and traveling abroad should regularly monitor the Department’s Bureau of Consular Affairs Internet web site at http://travel.state.gov <http://travel.state.gov/> , where the current Worldwide Caution, Travel Alerts, and Travel Warnings can be found.
The U.S. Embassy is located on the Transversale No. 2, Centre Administratif de Koloma opposite the New Radio Station in Ratoma, Conakry, Guinea. The U.S. Embassy website is http://conakry.usembassy.gov/index.html.
