Atlas Risk Score · 186th safest of 220
Where the risk actually is
Each region is coloured by the advice that applies to most of it, drawn by hand from the wording of all five government advisories. Numbered markers flag localised warnings — usually a border strip or remote interior — that cover only a small part of an otherwise lower-risk region.
This map reads stronger than the world map's colour, and both are right. The world map shades Togo by its Atlas Risk Score — 56, Moderate — which blends government advice with crime, health, roads and natural hazards. This map shows the advice alone, and the strongest level anywhere in Togo is “essential travel only”.
What the warnings actually cover
-
Savanes Region — Essential travel only. Essential travel only to the rest of the Savanes region in the far north.
-
1
Burkina Faso border — Do not travel. Do-not-travel within 30km of the Burkina Faso border, except Dapaong city and the N1 approaching it from the south. Lomé and the coast are 600km away.
A numbered marker warns about the small area described in its note — the rest of that region carries the base advice. Mapped by hand from the official wording in July 2026; always check the current advisory before you book.
What drives the score
Each pillar is scored 0–100 against every other country. Longer bar = more risk.
Biggest factor here: health & medical. Disease environment plus how good the care is if you need it.
