French residents are required to obtain a foreigner's residence permit, which entitles them to a renewable one-year visa. If they are in employment, they must hold a work permit for foreigners.<\/p>\n

Compulsory vaccinations<\/strong>
\nIt is advisable to update the vaccinations included in the vaccination calendar and add the hepatitis A vaccine 15 days before departure, as well as the hepatitis B vaccine for long or repeated stays. Malaria is transmitted all year round by mosquito bites. Preventive treatment is required: chemoprophylaxis with Atovaquone\/Proguanil, or Doxycycline, or Mefloquine.<\/p>\n

Currency and exchange rates<\/h1>\n

The national currency is the Djibouti franc (DJF). One euro is equivalent to 197.137 DJF. Cash is the rule outside the capital.

Major hotels and car hire companies generally accept payment by credit card. Banks are closed on Fridays.<\/p>\n
