On extremely rare occasions a natural disaster, an act of terrorism or conflict can happen in the country you are visiting or back home. In this case the Foreign Commonwealth Office (FCO) is responsible for all British nationals overseas, visit the FCO website for information about the help the FCO provide for British nationals overseas.
British nationals travelling overseas are advised to take sensible precautions especially in areas where a crisis is likely to occur. This applies if you are travelling to or living in a location where there is a high risk of terrorism, unrest or natural disasters.
