If you are traveling abroad, make sure you have a signed, valid passport and visa--if required. Before you go, fill in the emergency information page of your passport! Read travel warnings for the countries you plan to visit.
Make 2 copies of your passport identification page. This will facilitate replacement if your passport is lost or stolen. Leave one copy at home /friends or relatives. Carry the other one with you in a separate place from your passport. Leave a copy of your itinerary with family or friends at home so that you can be contacted in case of an emergency or disaster.
Do NOT leave your baggage unattended in public places. DO NOT accept packages from strangers. Prior to your departure, you should register with the nearest U.S. Embassy or consulate through the State Department's travel registration website. Registration will make your presence known in case it is necessary to contact you in an emergency. In accordance with the Privacy Act, information on your welfare and whereabouts may not be released without your express authorization. Remember to leave a detailed itinerary and the number of copies of your passport or other citizenship documents with a friend or relative in the United States.
