Common sense of traveling abroad

1. Tips for passport simplicity

You must get a passport first when traveling abroad, because no country allows people without passports to enter its territory. Passports are also strictly inspected in various countries to prevent holders of expired, invalid or even forged passports from entering the country. The relevant authorities authorized by the Ministry of Public Security handle applications for passports for overseas travel. After obtaining passports, you should check whether your name, date of birth and place are filled in correctly and sign your name on the signature box. Passports are usually valid for five years, and they have to be extended upon expiration. It's more troublesome to get a passport abroad, so it's better to entrust a travel agency with the way to simplify the passport when traveling abroad with a group.

2. Passport should be properly kept

Before going abroad, you should use your passport to apply for visas to the country you are going to and stop in, buy tickets for international flights, cars and boats, etc., and use your passport to stay in hotels and go through residence procedures abroad. Therefore, your passport must be properly kept and must not be altered, defiled or lost.

3. Instructions for visas

A visa is a certificate issued by an official agency of a country to allow its own and foreign citizens to enter and leave the country or stay and live in the country. A visa

is written on a passport or other identity card.

4. Provisions on visas and transit visas

The contents of visas in different countries are basically the same, and they all stipulate the validity period and residence period. If the entry-exit visa for a country is valid for half a year, the residence period is one month, and the entry-exit visa is once, that is to say, you can enter and stay for one month within half a year. If it is more than one month, you should go through the formalities for extending the visa with the relevant units.

The validity period of the transit visa is one month, and the stay time in transit is limited to three days. It is stipulated that you can enter and leave the country on any day during the validity period, but you can only stay for three days.

In addition, due to agreements with North Korea, Romania, Yugoslavia and other countries, all holders of ordinary passports for diplomatic, official and business purposes are granted visa-free.

5. The Yellow Book is a vaccination book

In order to prevent the international epidemic of certain infectious diseases, all countries have stipulated certain vaccinations that foreigners need to enter their own countries. There are mainly kinds of vaccinia, vaccination against cholera and yellow fever. Vaccinia is valid for eight days after the first inoculation and for three years from the day after the second inoculation. Cholera prevention is effective within six months from six days after vaccination. Prevention of yellow fever is effective for 9 years from the 1th day after inoculation. However, different countries need to be vaccinated differently, so before going abroad for vaccination, you should make the necessary understanding.

6. Shortcut of booking air tickets

Before traveling abroad, you should choose a convenient, economical and reasonable route according to the actual situation. Airlines in various countries provide accommodation convenience for long-distance passengers to transfer within 24 hours. Therefore, this factor should be considered when choosing the time and place for transferring planes. You can buy air tickets through the travel agency or directly at the business office of the airline you are flying. When buying a plane ticket, you must confirm whether the seat number, flight number, date, passing city and arrival city are correct, and the seat is confirmed (that is, OK) before you can fly. Air tickets are not transferable.

7. Baggage weight regulations by air

Generally, 2 kilograms of baggage can be checked for free by air, and 3 kilograms can be checked in first class. A few airlines stipulate that it can be relaxed to 3 kilograms, and the excess baggage should be paid. Therefore, it is better to prepare the luggage without being overweight. It is best to use a light and strong suitcase, which is not afraid of collision and is easy to carry. The box should be clearly marked with Chinese name and arrival place. Group tours can be marked uniformly for identification.

8. Tips for saving money by checking luggage

If there are too many oversized luggage, articles and instruments, in addition to carrying them with you, you can check them in advance to save money, and the freight is cheaper than general shipping.

9. Pay attention to the weather forecast of the country when traveling abroad

When traveling abroad, you usually need to buy new clothes. What kind of clothes should you prepare? You should first understand the climate and customs of the country you are going to, and then decide. Otherwise, it is cumbersome to take more clothes, and it is very embarrassing to take less.

1. You should know the entry procedures when traveling abroad

Every country should carry out strict inspections on inbound passengers, and the departments that handle these procedures are generally located at ports, entry and exit places, such as airport stations or docks.

The entry inspection includes border inspection. People entering or leaving the country should fill in the exit card, check their passports and visas, and affix the entry-exit inspection stamp after the inspection. Customs inspection is mainly to fill in the declaration form of articles carried, and the customs checks whether the luggage and articles of tourists are illegal and contraband. Some countries have to fill in the foreign currency declaration form and check it when leaving the country. Security inspection mainly prohibits carrying weapons, murder weapons, explosives and toxic substances, passing through security doors, close inspection by magnetic detectors, unpacking inspection, body search, etc.

What should you pay attention to when you travel abroad for the first time?

Precautions for flying The general sequence of check-in procedures is as follows: (1) Take the air ticket and ID card (there was a health declaration form during SARS) to the designated counter (generally, you can see a big screen with the corresponding check-in counter number of each flight as soon as you enter the airport lounge) and give it to the handler. She or he will change your boarding pass and ask if you have any luggage to check. Remember that there should be at least three ID cards and air tickets in the things you get back. (2) Buy insurance (2 yuan, not compulsory, depending on personal needs). (3) Three things need to be provided for the security check: ID card, air ticket and boarding pass. (4) Wait for boarding at the designated boarding gate and pay attention to the broadcast notice. The boarding gate number is indicated on the boarding pass. Precautions (1) Be sure to go through the formalities half an hour before the plane takes off, so it is best to arrive at the airport in advance according to the situation, especially during the Golden Week and when there are many people in Spring Festival travel rush. Some airports are very strict, and when it's time, they are not allowed to do it, such as Beijing Airport. (2) Friends who prefer a window seat can ask the handling staff to arrange a window seat for you when changing their boarding passes. Generally, there is no problem, unless you go late, the position is arranged for others. (3) When checking baggage, some airports will charge an insurance premium, around 1 yuan, such as Fuzhou Airport; If your suitcase is unlocked, some airports will force you to spend 5 yuan to buy a small lock, such as Guangzhou airport. (4) When carrying a fruit knife, it is best to check it in the luggage, otherwise it may be confiscated. In addition, small animals can't be brought on the plane, and it's troublesome to have a quarantine certificate to check in. Potted plants and flowers can be used. (5) The check-in voucher is usually posted on the air ticket. When the baggage arrives and is taken out, the staff will check whether the check-in voucher and the label on the baggage are corresponding. Be careful not to take someone else's and lose yours. (6) As long as the flight is delayed or cancelled, the airport will provide free drinks or meals during the meal time (it seems that it is easier to take care of the evening ones than the noon ones). If the plane at night tells you that you can't fly that day, it depends. Because of aircraft maintenance, flight deployment, etc., the airport will provide accommodation. Due to the weather, unexpected events, air traffic control and other reasons, we can only refund the ticket or change the visa. In this case, the airport does not care about food and accommodation. Unless all people condemn the flight delay or cancellation, as long as the plane is delayed, the airport will provide free drinks or meals during the meal time (it seems that the evening ones are easier to take care of than the noon ones). If the plane at night tells you that you can't fly that day, it depends. Because of aircraft maintenance, flight deployment, etc., the airport will provide accommodation. Due to the weather, unexpected events, air traffic control and other reasons, we can only refund the ticket or change the visa. In this case, the airport does not care about food and accommodation. (7) overbooking means that a flight sells more votes than the number of seats on the plane. In order to protect their own profits, almost every airline has a certain proportion of oversold phenomenon to ensure the utilization of flight seats. Foreign airlines generally control the ratio of oversold tickets to sold tickets at around 3%, while China stipulates that oversold tickets cannot exceed 3%. Everyone has to ask, isn't it that some people can't board the plane? That's right. In this case, the general practice of the airport is to first find volunteers among the passengers to take other flights. If there are not enough volunteers, we will refuse to board the plane. Airlines will issue compensation certificates and supporting travel preferential plans for passengers who voluntarily change flights; Passengers who are refused to board the plane will receive cash compensation. Of course, instead of cash compensation, they can also ask for proof of compensation for round-trip air tickets and corresponding preferential travel plans. Once rejected, passengers are entitled to demand compensation from airlines. The specific compensation will be handled immediately at the check-in counter, and an agreement will be signed to waive the right to trace the responsibility to the airline in the future. In order to avoid the delay of the trip when it is taken down at the airport, there are several points to pay attention to: (1) The more tense the route, the easier it is to oversell. (2) Arrive at the airport as early as possible, and those who arrive late may be taken down in case of oversold. (3) The more tickets are discounted, the easier it is to win. Therefore, comrades who have bought discounted tickets should go through the formalities early. (8) Miscellaneous (1) From the perspective of aircraft comfort, Boeing 747 has the best wide body, which is big and smooth. A slightly smaller model feels better about Airbus. (2) Airplane seats are arranged in rows according to A, B, C, D ... Boeing's logo is on the luggage rack, and Airbus's logo is on the small light above the seat. If you can't find it, you can ask the stewardess for help. On > >

what to bring when traveling abroad for the first time

You need to bring the following things abroad (add or subtract as appropriate):

1. Passport. Of course, if you travel abroad, you must bring your passport, otherwise you will travel abroad and become a domestic tour.

2. mobile phone. When traveling abroad, you must bring your mobile phone with you, so that you can contact your family in time or call for help in special circumstances. Of course, don't forget to open the international roaming of the destination country before traveling, or you will bring bricks.

tip: don't forget the mobile phone charger and spare panel, too. You must charge enough phone bills. If you stop, it will become a brick.

3. Universal power socket. Since you have all your mobile phones, of course, you should consider the problem of charging. Some foreign sockets are American standard or European standard, so in order to facilitate charging, it is recommended to bring a universal universal power plug.

4. small change. The habit of tipping is popular in many countries, so you have to have some small change around you, which can make you get better service whether you are eating or playing.

5. credit card. Traveling abroad, it is not recommended to bring a lot of cash with you, so as not to be targeted by criminals to rob money. Therefore, in addition to bringing the necessary foreign currency cash, you have to bring some credit cards with VISA or MASTERCard Master logo to satisfy your shopping desire.

tip: foreign credit cards usually don't need to enter the password to comment on the signature, so for the convenience of the period, remove the credit card password in advance.

6. Electronic dictionary. Take an electronic bilingual dictionary with you. In case you need to use a foreign language, you can follow the dictionary to make foreigners understand what you mean, so as to avoid the embarrassing scene of chickens talking to ducks.

Tip: It is more convenient to install an electronic dictionary in your mobile phone, which can make you take one less thing and more things home.

7. Common drugs. After all, language communication is inconvenient in foreign countries, and it is also inconvenient to find a drugstore or a doctor in case of a headache and fever, so you must bring some common medicines with you.

tip: commonly used drugs should be brought unopened and preferably marked in English, which can save a lot of trouble when entering or leaving the country.

8. toiletries. In foreign hotels, disposable toothpaste, toothbrush and other toiletries are generally not provided in the room, so these must be prepared.

9. Tea cups. Traveling abroad, the language is unreasonable, and it is troublesome to have no water to drink when you are tired, so it is necessary to bring a cup and fill it with water before you leave.

1. purchase order. In addition to having a good time, friends who travel abroad have to buy something they have long wanted, so make a good purchase list before leaving, and then check the price roughly online, so as to be aware of it, so as not to be won by a "dirty" tour guide.

what materials should be prepared for outbound travel procedures?

Don't worry too much about the formalities. Now many countries have relaxed their restrictions on China's entry. The general process is like this. First, you have to go to the entry-exit hall where the household registration is located to apply for a passport. This must be done by the applicant himself, and you need to bring your ID card and household registration book. After that, it depends on which country you want to go to, so just get a visa for that country. The so-called threshold is that you will need some identification, work certificate and property certificate to do a visa. Developed countries, such as Europe and the United States, require more property certificates, with 5 thousand deposit certificates at every turn. But some countries like Southeast Asia are relatively simple, as long as they have passports, they can apply for visas. When traveling abroad for the first time, I suggest going to some countries with easy visas, such as Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia. Thailand, for example, is a place where you can go as long as you have a passport, and places like Japan and Thailand are worth visiting. Two girls, I think you will be more interested in South Korea. I recommend Zhongxin Travel to you. I go out to play and now I look for them, which is quite good. These procedures are always a little troublesome, but don't worry, I didn't know anything at first, and the service of Zhongxin was in place. I went to the door of Jinsong, where Xiao Wang received a young man.
