Travel Guidance for the Middle East Through June 15, 2024
Stanford Global Risk is monitoring the security environment in the Middle East closely. Effective immediately, and through June 15, 2024, Stanford strongly recommends against all university-sponsored travel to Israel, Gaza, the West Bank, Jordan, Iran, Lebanon, and Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.
Individuals planning Stanford-sponsored or -organized travel to these countries are strongly encourager to email globalrisk@stanford.edu to schedule a safety/security consultation well in advance of their planned departure. As a reminder, all university travel must be registered in accordance with the university’s registry requirement.
In addition, undergraduate students and their sponsoring units should review the Provost's International Travel Policy and contact Global Risk if there are any questions about whether the proposed travel is compliant with the policy.
