Quick Tips to Make your Overseas Travel Easier and Safer
Register with the State Department before traveling
overseas so they can better assist you in an
emergency.  This will help them contact you if there is
a family emergency in the U.S., or if there is a crisis
where you are traveling abroad.  In accordance with
the Privacy Act, information on your welfare and
whereabouts will not be released to others without
your express authorization.
Sign passport, and fill in the emergency information:  Make sure you have a signed,
valid passport, and a visa, if required, and fill in the emergency information page of your
passport.

Leave copies of itinerary and passport data page:  Leave copies of your itinerary,
passport data page and visas with family or friends, so you can be contacted in case of
an emergency while you are traveling overseas.

Familiarize yourself with local conditions and laws:   While in a foreign country, you are
subject to its laws.  

Take precautions to avoid being a target of crime:  To avoid being a target of crime, do
not wear conspicuous clothing or jewelry and do not carry excessive amounts of
money.  Also, do not leave unattended luggage in public areas and do not accept
packages from strangers.

Contact the State Department in an emergency: Consular personnel at U.S. Embassies
and Consulates abroad and in the U.S. are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to
provide emergency assistance to U.S. citizens.  Note that the Office of Overseas Citizen
Services in the State Department’s Bureau of Consular Affairs may be reached for
assistance with emergencies at 1-888-407-4747, if calling from the U.S. or Canada, or
202-501-4444, if calling from overseas.
