The Togolese Republic (Togo) is located in Africa bordering Burkina Faso, Ghana, Benin and has about 56 kilometers of coastline on the Gulf of Guinea. The population is about 7.3 million people. The government is a republic with a president as chief of state and a prime minister as head of government.
Togo gained independence from France in 1960. For about 40 years, the country was under military rule. The Rally of the Togolese People Party (RPT), backed by the president, has been in power since 1967, although there have been questions about election irregularities. Despite efforts in Togo to transition to a multi-party democracy, the RPT still maintains a majority in the legislature today. Togo experienced political turbulence and human rights abuses in the 1990s. Today, Togo still faces many of these challenges but has made progress in infrastructure, education and healthcare improvements, and business reforms.
In Lomé, Kara and Kpalimé, there are some tourist facilities, however, outside the capital, there is little tourism infrastructure. Travellers can enjoy beautiful beaches and landscapes, hiking, visiting voodoo shrines and visiting the Koutammakou, the land of the Batammariba, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Togo中的安全性
人身安全
多哥經常發生扒竊和搶包等輕微犯罪,尤其是在市場和海灘等人群密集的地方,尤其是在洛美。洛美的大馬爾凱是扒手的聚集地。包括武裝搶劫在內的暴力犯罪主要發生在夜間和偏僻地區,但白天也可能發生攻擊。據報道,劫車事件時有發生,犯罪者有時會製造假交通事故,用摩托車或行人攔停車輛。一些事件涉及槍支、刀具和砍刀等武器。銀行和自動櫃員機容易引起犯罪者的注意。即使在市區內,也應避免獨自出行,尤其是在夜間。應避免前往洛美附近的海灘區以及加納-多哥邊境地區。犯罪往往在市區、海灘附近和擁擠的市場中更為頻繁,但與輕微盜竊相比,針對遊客的暴力犯罪相對較少。詐騙主要針對外國遊客,涉及愛情、商業投資和就業機會。全國各地的路障和檢查站,包括安全部隊駐守的檢查站,都存在賄賂要求。洛美的入室竊盜案件頻傳。多哥的示威活動可能演變成暴力事件。 2025年6月的抗議活動導致安全部隊使用催淚瓦斯和武力驅散人群,造成人員傷亡。索科德、巴菲洛和芒果等城市都有發生暴力示威的歷史。當局在抗議活動期間關閉了網路和電信服務。如果您遇到示威活動,請立即離開該地區。搶劫企圖不應進行身體抵抗。在多哥,約有71%的人在白天感到安全,但只有39%的人在夜間感到完全安全。
極端暴力
極端組織在多哥靠近布吉納法索的北部邊境地區和貝南北部發動了包括綁架在內的襲擊。主要威脅來自「支持伊斯蘭和穆斯林組織」和其他蓋達組織關聯組織,包括伊斯蘭馬格里布基地組織。這些組織主要活動在靠近布吉納法索邊境的北部薩瓦內斯地區。攻擊可能在幾乎沒有預警的情況下發生,目標可能是商店、市場、飯店、禮拜場所、餐廳、酒吧、學校、政府大樓、交通樞紐和其他人群聚集的場所。簡易爆炸裝置襲擊時有發生。 2024 年 6 月,在邦祖古發生的簡易爆炸裝置襲擊造成 4 人死亡。自 2021 年恐怖分子首次襲擊靠近貝南和布吉納法索邊境的桑洛阿加以來,暴力事件逐漸升級。截至 2023 年,北部衝突中已有約 40 名國防和安全部隊成員和約 100 名平民喪生。政府已宣布薩瓦內斯地區進入緊急狀態,並要求非多哥公民前往該地區必須獲得特別授權。 2022年,政府疏散了東北部15個村莊,以建立軍事區對抗暴力極端分子,導致全國超過1.8萬名境內流離失所者。北部地區發生暴力攻擊的可能性遠高於南部和沿海地區。西方公民,包括遊客、人道援助人員、記者和商務旅客,被視為合法目標。如果您被綁架,您身處此地的理由不太可能保護您或確保您獲釋。美國政府禁止使館人員未經特別授權前往達帕翁(Dapaong)以北地區、N24或N28高速公路沿線以及肯彭賈爾(Kpendjal)和肯彭賈爾西(Kpendjal-Ouest)地區。使館人員不得在芒果(Mango)以北地區過夜。政府在這些北部地區提供緊急服務的能力有限。恐怖分子很可能試圖在多哥發動攻擊。
政治動盪
多哥經歷了嚴重的政治動盪,尤其是在 2024 年和 2025 年。 2024 年 4 月通過的憲法改革建立了議會制,取消了總統直接選舉,並取消了新行政職位的任期限制,使總統福雷·納辛貝自 2005 年執政以來可以無限期地掌權。他的家族控制多哥近 60 年。 2025 年 6 月爆發抗議活動,反對這些憲法變化、高昂的生活成本、不斷上漲的電價以及政府對異議人士的鎮壓。 2025 年 6 月 5 日至 6 日和 6 月 26 日至 28 日的示威活動導致至少 7 人死亡,數十人受傷,60 多人被捕。安全部隊使用催淚瓦斯、實彈和過度武力驅散抗議者。在洛美的河流中發現了有槍傷的屍體。政府和民兵被指控暴力鎮壓,包括酷刑、任意逮捕和毆打抗議者。抗議活動期間,當局關閉了網路服務並限制了電信服務,2025年6月25日至27日期間,偵測到超過1,000個連線速度技術異常。政府一再禁止政黨和民間團體的示威活動和會議。 2024年早些時候,當局以擾亂公共秩序的罪名逮捕了九名反對派成員,並禁止了多場計畫中的示威活動。安全部隊過去曾在索科德、巴菲洛和芒果等城市使用過度武力驅散人群,造成抗議者和安全部隊傷亡。警方使用催淚瓦斯驅散抗議活動,導致市中心和1號國道沿線交通中斷。當局和反對派之間的政治局勢依然緊張。即使是和平示威也可能隨時演變成暴力事件,導致交通和大眾運輸中斷。政治集會、抗議和暴力示威可能出乎意料地發生。在動亂期間,當局切斷了網路和手機服務。反對派成員和記者面臨騷擾、任意拘留和活動限制。
應避免的區域
與布吉納法索接壤的北部邊境地區是多哥最危險的地區。由於恐怖主義、綁架和軍事行動,建議不要前往布吉納法索邊境30至5公里範圍內的地區。這包括達帕翁(Dapaong)以北的城市和地區、肯彭賈爾(Kpendjal)和肯彭賈爾西(Kpendjal-Ouest)地區,以及沿著N28、N24和N16高速公路行駛。薩瓦內斯(Savanes)地區目前處於政府緊急狀態,非多哥公民入境需特別授權。大使館工作人員未經特別授權不得前往這些地區,且不得在芒果(Mango)以北地區過夜。坎德(Kande)以北地區也存在恐怖主義威脅,應避免前往,因為極端組織已在貝南附近地區發動攻擊。在布吉納法索西南部的極端組織已滲透至多哥邊境,並發動攻擊和綁架。為此,政府已加強了邊境地區的軍事行動。在洛美,部分地區需要格外小心。天黑後應避免前往海灘區域,尤其是薩拉卡瓦酒店 (Hotel Sarakawa) 以西以及光線昏暗或完全沒有光線的區域。洛美的主要海灘在晚上 10 點後會變得很危險。由於犯罪活動猖獗,應隨時避免前往洛美附近的海灘路和加納-多哥邊境地區。大馬爾凱 (Grand Marche) 地區雖然安全,但需要保持警惕,因為那裡有扒手活動。雖然洛美的商業中心和行政區在白天通常較為安全,但某些街區仍需格外小心。帕利梅 (Kpalime) 周圍的中部高地被認為是遊客較安全的地區之一。政府在北部邊境地區提供緊急服務的能力有限。多哥邊境可能會在短時間內關閉。
