Practical information for travellers

Practical information for Hungarian nationals travelling to The Gambia.

Before you travel

Entry and health


Before you book, read the Hungarian Consular Service's travel advice for The Gambia (in Hungarian). It sets the current security category and lists the entry and vaccination requirements. These change, and the official advice is always more current than any other page.

On arrival

Money and getting around


The currency is the Gambian dalasi (GMD). Cash is still widely used outside the main hotels. Banjul International Airport serves the Greater Banjul Area, and most visitors stay along the coastal strip.

If something goes wrong

Consular assistance


Hungarian nationals in difficulty can contact this office directly. For anything requiring formal consular action, we will liaise with the Embassy in Accra on your behalf.
