Terrorism & Travel

When traveling outside of the country, it is important to research the terrorism threat level of your destination. This can tell you what areas you need to avoid and, in some cases, if you are legally allowed to travel to the country at all. In the least, doing this type of research can better prepare you for your trip, allowing you to keep in mind and be on the lookout for any possible threats to yourself or your family. It is also important when traveling to another country to locate your country's embassy. In many cases, you can check in with your embassy when you enter the country and when you leave. If the worst happens, the embassy will have a record of your presence, and may be able to help protect you from a terrorist threat.
