There’s a lot to consider when you’re planning for international travel. We've put together a comprehensive list of to-dos for faculty, staff, postdocs and students, up to 6 months before your travel date. 

International Travel Assistance

Travelers may benefit from global travel risk assessments and mitigation recommendations. This service is available through the Global Risk office (globalrisk@stanford.edu) and is particularly useful for:

(1) Travel to higher-risk destinations (based on information from the U.S. Department of State, Centers for Disease Control, International SOS or other reliable sources of information for health, safety or security risks),

(2) Group trips that include five or more travelers, and,

(3) Travelers with particular vulnerabilities.

Learn about the support available to you through the university's International Travel Assistance Program.
