1 mission of Sweden in Djibouti: Consulate of Sweden in Djibouti Ville, Djibouti. Addresses, phones and contacts.
Head of mission: Mr Michel Izzo, Honorary Consul (as of 2010)
Sweden is an appealing destination for some Djiboutians, thanks to its stunning landscapes and lively cities, supported by a strong tourism infrastructure. While it attracts a modest number of international visitors, its reputation as a quality niche destination may resonate with a segment of Djibouti's population of around one million.
Sweden is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, including those from Djibouti. According to the Global Peace Index, Sweden ranks 39th out of 160 countries, indicating a relatively high level of safety, especially compared to Djibouti, which ranks 117th. In terms of crime statistics, Sweden has a low murder rate of 1.1 per 100,000 people, with female murders at 0.5, while data for Djibouti is not available. However, Sweden does face organized crime challenges, with a mafia groups index of 5.5 and crime networks also at 5.5, compared to Djibouti's lower indices for mafia groups (1.5) and crime networks (5.0). Overall, while there are some safety concerns, Sweden is safer than Djibouti, making it a suitable travel destination for tourists.
