Winter 2007 Trip: Government Information Links

U.S. Government Information

Visit these US government web sites for updated information pertinent to international travel.

US Passport holders: check to see that your passport will NOT expire for 6 months AFTER the Thai trip ends. For most people, that would be about July 20, 2007 (unless you remain behind for independent travel). Note: The RTC-TH trip fees DO NOT cover passports and related expenses.

If you need a US passport or need to renew a US passport, use the weblinks below and take care of this immediately. If you are not a US citizen, the same expiration criteria apply to you. If you need a non-US passport or need to renew your non-US passort, contact your nation's embassy or consular office for information. NOTE: Be sure you have proper documentation to re-enter the US when returning from the Winter 2007 Thai volunteer trip.

Thai Government Information

If you have a Non-US, Non-Thai passport, check on the Thai visa requirements by visiting the Royal Thai Consulate website using the link below.
