THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE YOU TRAVEL
NEW APPLICATION FOR A U.S. PASSPORT
To obtain a passport for the first time, you need to go in person to one of 7,000 passport acceptance facilities located throughout the United States with two photographs of yourself, proof of U.S. citizenship, and a valid form of photo identification such as a driver's license. (Information obtained from U.S. Department of State website Travel.State.Gov)


RENEWAL OF A U.S. PASSPORT
You can renew by mail if: Your most recent passport is available to submit and it is not damaged; you received the passport within the past 15 years; you were over age 16 when it was issued; you still have the same name, or can legally document your name change. (Information obtained from U.S. Department of State website Travel.State.Gov) For more information on either obtaining a new passport or renewing an old one please visit www.travel.state.gov/passport.


VISAS
Some countries require U.S. Citizens to have a Visa to obtain entry into their country. Visas can be obtained from either the particular country's Consulate or Embassy. Please note that some countries require that the passenger's passport be at least 6 months old. For a more detailed explanation for getting a Visa and a complete list of the countries that require a Visa for entry please visit www.travel.state.gov/travel and in the left column select Travel Brochures and then select foreign entry requirements.


HEALTH
When traveling abroad one will always have a better trip if they are in good health. In order to make sure you stay healthy, before you go on your trip, you should check with one of the many Health websites that can be found on the internet. One of the best is the U.S. Center for Disease Control which can be found at www.cdc.gov/travel. Here you will find a great deal of information on which countries United States Citizens will want to take the most precautions (health wise) with.


EMBASSY
When traveling abroad your embassy can be a good source of help if you ever find yourself in a bad situation. For example if due to extreme weather conditions the embassy can and will help with evacuations. However in order to receive this help the embassy or consulates would need to know where you are. For this reason it is suggested that if one is traveling abroad by themselves that they register with the local embassy or consulate. As such provided here is the web link for the addresses of all of the U.S. embassies that can be found abroad travel.state.gov/travel/tips/embassies.
