Do you know how to contact the U.S. Embassies and Consulates when you're traveling outside the U.S.?

Protect YourselfProtect YourselfBefore you leave home, visit the Bureau of Consular Affairs for information you may need while abroad. They're open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Another source of help in an emergency is the Office of Overseas Citizen Services in the State Department's Bureau of Consular Affairs.

You can reach them at 888-407-4747, if calling from the U.S. or Canada, or 202-501-4444, if calling from overseas.

I set up Hands Up Holidays with the passion to create amazing vacations where people got to learn about other cultures, explore a destination, and interact meaningfully with the locals, through the medium of carefully consulted volunteer projects. Families do indeed get a lot out of our trips, as do couples, single travellers, and seniors. Yours in Adventures That Count Chris "

  • On Myanmar Disaster Relief – Volunteer Vacations Can Help, Jen said " If you're frustrated that you don't have a response yet, I can understand. Right now the agencies are still dealing with a lot of paperwork to get into Myanmar. However, once they are in, they need names and applications on file so they can call on you when they are ready to go. If your vacation dates are more structured, why don't you contact an agency which runs volunteer programs all the time, you'll be able to make a difference somewhere without driving your boss nuts waiting to find out when you're going. Good luck!"
