American Citizen Services

Welcome to the American Citizen Services (ACS) Unit of the U.S. Embassy in Freetown.  The United States government has no higher responsibility than to serve and protect its citizens, including those who reside or are temporarily abroad.  We strive to render prompt, courteous, and efficient service to U.S. citizens, consistent with U.S. laws and regulations.

The ACS Unit provides a wide range of services to American citizens visiting or residing in Sierra Leone.  Use the links on the left for more information about our services.

We urge you to register with the Embassy if you will be traveling or living in Sierra Leone in order to allow the ACS Unit to better help and serve you, especially in the event of an emergency or disaster.
