Passport
When it comes to traveling abroad, first piece of document you need is a
passport. It is the most important document. Following are some of the very
essential safety information you should keep in mind:
- Before you travel, make sure you passport is valid and will not be expire while
you are away. Most of the country will not except your passport if it has expired.
- Always take good care of your passport. Don't give or handover your
passport to anyone. You need that to go and come in every country of the world.
Without a passport you will not be able to get in the plane.
- Keep your passport with you at all times. If you are visiting friends or
family, make sure that your passport is in a safe place. If you are in a hotel or
shopping around the town, always check on it.
- Do you have a duplicate copy of your passport? If not, make at least 3
photo copies of your passport. Leave one behind at your permanent address, 2nd copy
with you when you traveling but not with the original passport (or keep it with your
traveling companion). Incase you lose your passport, you would need the photocopy
for your identification. While making photocopy, make sure to copy all the relevant
pages of your passport (mainly the page with your photo and profile)
- If you have a scanner - scan you passport and send it to your own e-mail
address. It could be very helpful incase if you lose your passport and photocopy
can't be located.
- If incase, you lost your passport, notify the local police authority and
contact your embassy immediately. Do not delay on reporting the lost of your
passport. Your travel arrangement might be delayed due to lost of your passport.
Where else do you need a passport?
- If you pulled over or stopped by the law enforcement officers in a foreign
country, passport is you first identity along with your international drivers license.
- If you like to use your credit card for your shopping need, passport can be
used as your identification.
- Any place you might need to prove you identification. For example if
you are visiting Las Vegas, US and you happened to win something in a game, you need to
prove your age and identity to collect the winning prize.
