Safety first
Haiti has a high crime rate, especially in Port-au-Prince. Avoid walking alone at night, don't display valuables, and use trusted transport. Check your government's travel advisory before booking.
Cash is king
Credit cards are rarely accepted outside major hotels. Bring enough US dollars or euros in cash to exchange. ATMs are scarce and often out of service.
