Travel Reports and Warnings
Travel reports offer information on safety and security, local laws and customs, entry requirements, health conditions and other important travel issues. (DFAIT, 2010)
Travel warnings are sometimes issued in response to natural disasters, political and civil unrest and health issues, advising individuals to either avoid non-essential or all travel to a country or to specific region(s) of that country.
Travelling to a country with a travel warning can affect your health insurance and/or trip cancellation insurance coverage. Therefore, it is important to check the travel reports of the countries where you intend to study and travel.
Travel Reports and Warnings can be found on the following websites:
- Canadian Government: Department of Foreign Affairs & International Trade
- Australian
