Dominica departure tax travel warning
Posting on Twitter, the FCDO wrote: "Read our latest travel advice for #Dominica for information about paying departure tax if you are travelling by ferry."
According to the latest advice, there is a departure tax for leaving Dominica, regardless on if you are travelling by plane or ferry.
In most cases, the tax is covered in the price of your plane ticket, but you should be checking with your travel agent before heading off.
The amount increased in April 2019 to 86 East Caribbean Dollars, which is £25.99.
If you are travelling out of Dominica by ferry, you will be required to pay the tax before you leave.
Mongolia flooding warning
According to the latest advice for Mongolia, the FCDO has warned travellers to be aware of the unexpected rainfall causing flooding in the country.
The website reads: "Following large amounts of unexpected rainfall, rivers have broken their banks and parts of Ulaanbaatar are experiencing substantial flooding.
"This has caused travel disruption and damage to property and infrastructure. Follow police directions and be careful when travelling by car or on foot.
"Flights are now leaving Mongolia regularly.
"Around 6,500 British nationals visit Mongolia annually. Most visits are trouble-free."
Peru State of Emergency warning
On the FCDO website, it was confirmed that on July 5, the Peruvian Government declared a state of emergency in the country due to increased volcanic activity.
The warning reads: "If you’re planning to visit areas of known volcanic activity, pay careful attention to all warnings and follow the advice of the local authorities.
"On July 5, 2023, the Peruvian Government declared a state of emergency in the area surrounding the Ubinas volcano in Moquegua region due to Ubinas’s increased volcanic activity.
"See the Ingemmet website (Peruvian Institute of Geology and Mining) for more information."
The Peruvian Government have also advised tourists to be aware of heavy rain and snow that has disrupted various parts of the country.
The FCDO said: "During the rainy season land, rock and mudslides, or snow can cause disruption to road and rail travel as well as to walking routes in mountain and jungle areas.
"These normally include Cusco, the routes to Machu Picchu (including the alternative Santa Maria-Santa Teresa-hydroelectric plant route, and the Salkantay route), the route to Manu (in Cusco and Madre de Dios) and the north of Peru. Weather conditions can also lead to the delay of flights, including in Cusco and Arequipa.
"Take care when travelling in these areas during the rainy season and check the latest conditions with your tour operator.
"You should ensure you travel with a sufficient supply of food, water, cash in local currency, personal medication, and warm clothes should travel be disrupted."
