Before visiting a foreign country, you should ensure that all your travel concerns are addressed. The State Department can help answer questions about traveling abroad. Here are a few of the most common questions my office receives that deal with this agency:
- I will be traveling to the Middle East next month. How can I find out if it is safe for me to go?
- With the situation in the Middle East changing on a daily basis, you should check with the State Department to find out the most current public information available before traveling to the region.
- Find out detailed, updated information on travel warnings and public information
- I will be going abroad this summer with my family. Will we need certain vaccinations?
- Many countries require travelers to get vaccines against certain diseases.
- Find out if your travel plans require a vaccination
- I will be traveling to several countries this summer. I've got a passport, but are there any other entry requirements that I need to be aware of?
- Every country's entry requirements can be different. You should inquire about entry visas for each country you will be visiting.
- Department of State's Bureau of Consular Affairs has information on entry requirements
