Travel Advisory
Level 2Exercise Increased Caution
Exercise increased cautionin Greenland due to environmental hazards posed by extreme weather conditions and limited emergency services. The U.S. government’s ability to provide consular services to U.S. citizens in Greenland is extremely limited. Greenland’s landscape includes vast stretches of territory remote from cities and settlements. The weather can be harsh, and resources to provide emergency services in areas distant from cities and large settlements, including search and rescue, are scarce. In some areas, search and rescue efforts could take several days to reach the site of an incident. Review the Travel Guidance section for additional information on travel to Greenland.
