Location: Leeward Islands, Caribbean.

Country dialling code: 1 664.

Note: Montserrat is still experiencing volcanic activity at the Soufrière Hills (which began erupting in 1995), causing the capital, Plymouth, to be closed and the relocation of businesses and residents living on the southern and eastern sides of the island to the northern side. Scientists at the Montserrat Volcano Observatory have advised that the northern part is safe from immediate volcanic activity. Montserrat continues to welcome visitors to the northern part of the island where economic development is now being planned.

Diplomatic representation: Montserrat is a British Overseas Territory, and is represented abroad by British Embassies – see United Kingdom section.
