An MCP server that answers questions about UK FCDO foreign travel advice from the official GOV.UK Content API — safety warnings, entry requirements, health requirements and update history — with a source link, update timestamps and Open Government Licence attribution on every answer.
Runs in Apify Standby mode. Connect an MCP client to the server URL with path /mcp.
Tools
get_destination_warning(destination)— the FCDO advice-against-travel status (e.g. "avoid all but essential travel to parts"), the headline warnings summary, and the latest change note.get_entry_requirements(destination)— passport validity, visas and border rules for British-citizen passport holders.get_health_requirements(destination)— vaccinations, medication rules and health risks.compare_destination_advice(destinations)— the advice-against-travel status across several destinations at once (one official read, and one charge, per resolved destination).get_advice_update(destination)— when the advice was last updated and what changed, with recent change history and the review date.
Every answer carries source_url, public_updated_at / reviewed_at, and the OGL attribution.
The source, and what will and won't bill
The one door is the official GOV.UK Content API (gov.uk/api/content/foreign-travel-advice/{destination}), queried logged-out with no API key. robots.txt permits these paths for our agent and is re-proven at server boot. A schema canary refuses to serve a document whose shape has drifted.
Only successful calls bill. A completed retrieval of official advice charges. A destination GOV.UK has no page for (usually a misspelled name), an empty argument, a GOV.UK read failure, or a schema drift returns a notice and is not charged.
Pricing
Pay per event.
| Event | Price (USD) | When it fires |
|---|---|---|
apify-actor-start | $0.05 | once when the server starts (reserved; charged automatically by Apify, never in code) |
mcp-tool-call | $0.05 | once per completed tool call against the GOV.UK API (errors and notices never bill) |
Scope and honesty
This server reproduces official FCDO advice verbatim-in-substance with citations; it is guidance for UK travellers as published by the FCDO, not legal or medical advice. It is a different job from a commercial travel-inventory MCP: it returns official safety/entry/health evidence with sources, not bookable inventory. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
