About shouldigo.to

We aggregate travel safety advisories from 8 governments for every country in the world — so you can compare who agrees, who doesn't, and decide for yourself.

Why we built this

Most travelers check one government's advisory and move on. But advisory levels vary significantly between countries: the US State Department, UK FCDO, and Canada often differ by a full level for the same destination. A country rated "exercise normal precautions" by one government may be rated "reconsider travel" by another.

shouldigo.to puts all 8 sources side by side so you can see the full picture — and link directly to each government's full advisory for the detail you need before you book.

Advisory level scale

Each government uses its own terminology, but most map to a 1–4 risk scale. We normalize them as follows:

L1
Exercise normal precautions. No specific elevated risk. Standard awareness applies.
L2
Exercise increased caution. Some risks present. Be aware of your surroundings and local conditions.
L3
Reconsider travel. Significant risks. Consider whether your travel is essential and take extra precautions.
L4
Do not travel. Extreme risk due to conflict, terrorism, civil unrest, or other serious conditions.

We display the maximum advisory level issued by any source (the most cautious view) and the minimum (the least cautious), so you can see the full range of government opinion at a glance.

Data freshness

Advisory data is fetched and refreshed daily from each government's official API or published data. The "Updated" timestamp shown on each country page reflects when our data pipeline last ran, not necessarily when each government last changed their advisory. Always check the linked official source for the most current status before you travel.

What we're not

shouldigo.to is an independent aggregation tool — we are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any government. The data displayed is for informational purposes only and does not constitute travel, legal, or safety advice. Always consult the official government advisory for your country and the destination country's own foreign ministry guidance before making travel decisions.
