Information On Crime

INFORMATION ON CRIME: The crime rate within the local community in the Republic of Palau is moderate, with tourists usually not affected. Foreign residents can be the target of petty and sometimes violent crimes, as well as other random acts against person and property. Credible complaints by foreign residents persist that crimes against non-Palauans are not pursued or prosecuted by authorities with the same vigor as crimes against Palauan nationals. The loss or theft abroad of a U.S. passport should be reported immediately to local police and to the U.S. Embassy in Palau. Useful information on guarding valuables and protecting personal security while traveling abroad is provided in the Department of State pamphlet A Safe Trip Abroad, which is available from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington D.C. 20402, or via the Internet at http://www.access.gpo.gov/su-docs.
