What each government says

Its level on one scale, its own wording, and a summary of its advice written from its own text

Canada0Normal precautions
Exercise normal security precautions

Exercise normal security precautions in Tokelau. Petty crime may occur, tourist facilities and basic services are extremely limited, and beaches without lifeguards can have powerful currents and riptides, and rescue services may be inconsistent. Plan carefully, confirm boat schedules and allow extra time because travel from Samoa and connections between atolls are infrequent. Consult residents about safe swimming areas, follow local warnings, wear reef shoes and ensure insurance covers planned activities.

Exercise normal precautions in Tokelau, but remain alert for pickpocketing and theft. Do not use, possess or sell drugs, as penalties can include heavy prison sentences or fines, and LGBTQ+ people may face discrimination and aggression. Follow local authorities' instructions during tropical storms, particularly from November to May.
