Are You Traveling to Another Country? 

If you're traveling to another country for the holidays, be sure to check the Consular Information Sheet for your destination. These reports are prepared by U.S. Embassies and Consulates throughout the world. They contain information about visa and entry requirements, availability of medical care, crime and security, road conditions, location of the U.S. Embassy, and much more information for every country of the world.


Be sure to read any travel warnings or public announcements that may be in effect for the country or region where you are traveling.
