Latest from the web
On 18 June 2026, the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) officially lifted its long-standing advice against all but essential travel to Qatar. This major update follows the signing of a memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran, which has led to a relaxation of travel warnings across several Gulf nations. While the travel ban is removed and insurance validity is restored, officials continue to warn that the regional security situation remains unpredictable.
