• Make two copies of your passport, travel visas, airline tickets, insurance documents. Leave one set at home and carry a set with you.
• When using a passport, make sure the expiration date is 6 months past your return date.
• Make a list of the credit cards you will carry with you (bring only the cards you will really need). Leave at home all unnecessary items such as keys, expensive jewelry, etc.
• Advise the companies of the credit cards you will be carrying that you will be making charges away from home, so they don’t assume your card was stolen.
• If renting a car abroad, obtain an International Driver’s License. These are not usually required, but can be beneficial for recognition by local authorities and safeguards your state-issued license.
• Bring a card that includes special medical conditions, allergies, names and numbers of your doctors, even your blood type for medical emergencies.
• Bring prescriptions in their original prescription-labeled bottles and pack them in your carry-on. It’s also a good idea to bring extra supply of prescriptions, extra glasses and a list of the medicines you’ll carry.
• Consider purchasing travel insurance. Your medical insurance may not cover you outside of the United States.
• Use your business address on luggage identification tags when possible.
• Place your name, address and telephone number inside your luggage.
• Stop your mail, newspaper and other deliveries.
• Don’t change the outgoing message on your answering machine. Never use a message that says, “we are out of town”.
• Set and activate a timer for your lights.
• If traveling internationally, bring a converter/adapter, extra memory cards and batteries (or film) for your camera.
• At your destination, carry a piece of the hotel stationary or matchbook with you. This comes in handy when communicating with local taxi drivers or simply remembering the name of the hotel you’re staying at.
