Where the governments disagree on Antigua and Barbuda

Opinion on Antigua and Barbuda is divided, though not dramatically: ratings run from level 1 to level 2. Three of the nine take the stricter view, and the remaining six see no cause for it. A one-level split of this kind usually reflects differing thresholds between governments rather than a dispute about the facts.

Currency varies between sources. Ireland's is the oldest assessment of Antigua and Barbuda on file, last revised in August 2025, while the rest have been reviewed more recently.

Your own government's rating is the one your insurer and embassy will act on, so read that source first — the one level of daylight between the strictest and most relaxed assessments here is context, not a substitute for it.

Derived from 9 government assessments for Antigua and Barbuda, most recently reviewed in October 2026.
