| A checklist of do's and don'ts for anybody going
abroad : |
| Before departure |
| |
Check
the health, economic and political situations
in the country of destination as well as
in the countries where you will transit. |
| |
Take the addresses and
phone numbers of your country's Embassies
and Consulates in your destination and in
the countries where you will only transit. |
| |
Note your passport and
credit card numbers and keep them in a safe
place. |
| |
Inform your relatives
and secretary of your travel itinerary, flight
details, hotel coordinates, etc. to make sure
colleagues/relatives know where you are at
all times. |
| |
Keep all your travel documents
(passport, visa, airline tickets, etc.) in
a safe place. |
| |
If you carry medicines,
make sure you take the related boxes and prescriptions
with you. |
| |
Do not take any publications
or videotapes that may offend the locals. |
|
| During the stay |
| |
Keep a
low profile: avoid wearing expensive jewelry
or luxury items.
|
| |
Always have the local
emergency telephone numbers with you (police,
ambulance, etc.) and enough coins to call
from a public phone. |
| |
Avoid carrying large amount
of currency; use travelers checks and credit
cards and small denominations. |
| |
In any case, do not keep
all your payment means in the same place in
your wallet or purse. |
| |
Try not to mention your
company name, function or nationality when
strangers can hear you. |
| |
Keep away from unattended
packages or luggage. |
| |
Prefer calling up a cab
from an official company instead of stopping
one in the street. |
| |
Check the identity of
any person knocking on your door or put the
security chain on if you have to open the
door. |
| |
When driving or walking, make sure nobody
is following you.
