Health Care
Healthcare facilities are generally of a reasonable standard in the major urban centres of the north with a fairly established network of clinics and hospitals. However, facilities are more limited in the southern Sahara region. Doctors and hospitals usually ask for immediate cash payment for their services. Emergency cases will be dealt with free of charge. Comprehensive travel insurance is essential; make sure your policy covers medical treatment and repatriation.
Note
* A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required from travellers over one year of age coming from infected areas.
