UK FCDO Updates Nicaragua Travel Advice
The UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) published travel advice for Nicaragua, still current as of 8 September 2026 and last updated on 10 December 2025, adding new information about dual nationals returning to the UK (see the 'Entry requirements' page). There is no resident British diplomatic mission in Nicaragua and the FCDO cannot give in-person support; emergency help or passport issues must be directed to the British Embassy in San Jose, Costa Rica, and replacement travel documents may take up to 4 weeks longer than normal.
Impact and considerations
With no resident British mission in Nicaragua, consular support is limited and document replacement is delayed; companies should allow longer lead times for emergency and document processing for staff posted or travelling there.
