  • Visa Information for Travelers to the United States of America
    Visa Information for Travelers to the United States of America This page is intended to provide general information to individuals planning to visit the United States temporarily. The purpose of the visit determines what type of visa will be needed. Visitors planning to visit or attend a meeting most likely will apply for a B-1 visa. For comprehensive B-1 Visa information please visit the US State Department’s Visitor Visa Website. Visa Waiver Program Foreign citizens traveling for visitor visa purposes only, from certain eligible countries may be able to visit the U.S. without a visa, through the Visa Waiver Program if they meet requirements, including having a valid Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) approval. Citizens of Mexico traveling to the US have the option to secure a Border Crossing Card rather than a B-1 visa. Additionally, citizens of Canada and Bermuda traveling for visitor visa purposes do not need a visa, with some exceptions. Currently, 36 countries participate in the Visa Waiver Program, as shown below: Andorra Denmark Hungary Liechtenstein New Zealand Slovenia Australia Estonia Iceland Lithuania Norway South Korea Austria Finland Ireland Luxembourg Portugal Spain Belgium France Italy Malta San Marino Sweden Brunei Germany Japan Monaco Singapore Switzerland Czech Greece Latvia the Slovakia United Republic Netherlands Kingdom Applying for a US Visa Applicants for visitor visas should generally apply the U.S. Embassy or Consulate with jurisdiction over their place of permanent residence. Although visa applicants may apply at any U.S. consular office abroad, it may be more difficult to qualify for the visa outside the country of permanent residence.

  • Chapter 5: Travel Guidelines
    Chapter 5: Travel Guidelines CHAPTER 5: Travel Guidelines A U.S. Air Force C-17 aircraft lands near McMurdo Station. Photo by Jack Green. This chapter gives travel advice for the foreign countries through which you might travel and explains how to obtain your ECW clothing and how to transport your baggage. The chapter also describes your arrival in Antarctica and your return from the continent. TRAVEL ADVICE Customs and Mail Warning Like any traveler, USAP participants must obey foreign laws. These laws can differ from those of the U.S., and penalties for violations can be severe. Persons found in violation of these laws are subject to prosecution in local courts. Association with the USAP affords neither preferential treatment nor immunity from prosecution. Governments make all attempts to prevent the passage of illegal materials, especially illegal drugs, through their countries. You could be imprisoned for life for transporting or mailing illegal drugs to a foreign country. At NSF’s request, all mail destined for the continental side of the program is screened and inspected by the New Zealand Customs Service. On occasion, U.S. citizens have been detained by Customs on their return from Antarctica. Some of them have been found guilty of mailing illegal materials and have been fined. U.S. law also prohibits the mailing of controlled substances and illegal drugs. It is U.S. policy (April 6, 1982, Federal Register, pages 14864-14866) to ensure personnel authorized to use military postal facilities do not abuse the customs, tax, and other laws of the host country. In short: • Obey the law.

  • Just Passing Through
    1 JUST PASSING THROUGH 1. INTRODUCTION I was born in Estonia. Leaving there as a teenager ahead of the second Soviet occupation of that country in September 1944, I became a refugee in Germany. Immigrating to Australia in 1949 and becoming a citizen, most of my working life was then spent in the minerals industry until retirement in 1999. Some of my friends, no doubt conscious of the relentless passage of time, have urged me to record my recollections. They have been mostly too gentle to add “before it is too late”. I had been doing this in considerable detail, including my family history going back just over 300 years and the events in Western Mining Corporation during the 25 years I was the Chairman. The complete record is too detailed to be of general interest and I have therefore prepared this selection of topics which, while omitting many episodes and only just touching on others, deals with many of the happenings in my life and includes reflections on a number of issues. It is not for publication, but a private document for a limited circle of family and friends. The initial manuscript was concluded in September 2005. Amended and updated on several occasions, it was finalised in January 2008. When considering past events, we must remember that the world then was different from today‟s. Even in my lifetime both the physical conditions of life – travel, communications, living standards generally – and people‟s attitudes, perceptions and values have gone through a great change. Going further back the changes are greater still.

Hong Kong residents are required to present [a] Hong Kong Identity Card. All non-residents complete an Arrival Card on entering Hong Kong.

(HKIA n.d.a) In correspondence with the Research Directorate, an official with the Immigration Department of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (Hong Kong SAR) provided the following information on documents required for international departures by air from Hong Kong: For [a] Hong Kong permanent resident with a valid permanent identity card (PIC) bearing [a] three asterisks symbol on the card face, the PIC would be accepted for immigration departure clearance purpose. But the passenger is reminded to bring … his/her valid travel document for the entry immigration examination of the travel destination. In practice, we know that the passenger would be requested by the relevant airline check-in staff to present a valid travel document for checking before the passenger can proceed to the airport restricted area for immigration clearance.

  • US Customs and Border Protection Inspector's Field Manual
    U.S. Customs and Border Protection Inspector’s Field Manual Charles M. Miller, Editor Editor’s Notes This publication of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Inspector’s Field Manual (hereinafter cited as the IFM) is the result of a successful Freedom of Information Act appeal. Since the tragic loss of life due to the terroristic acts of foreigners in the United States on September 11, 2001, there has been continued governmental scrutiny of the procedures by which persons are admitted at over 300 air, sea, and land ports of entry by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) employees. In November 2007, the General Accountability Office issued the public version of its Border Security Report which analyzed the procedures by which the cross-border travel of millions of persons is regulated. 1 The GAO Border Security Report cited the IFM as a primary resource for its review of CBP inspections procedures.2 The CBP, created in March 2003 as part of the massive government reorganization which created the Department of Homeland Security, represents a merger of components from the U.S. Customs Service, the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service, and the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service. Our attention as immigration lawyers is similarly directed to the inspections process. In fiscal year 2006, the CBP found over 200,000 persons to be either inadmissible aliens or interdicted as law violators.3 We are aware that inspection is a crucial function made difficult by the millions of travelers that enter the country each year. The high volume of international travel to the U.S.

OBTAINING YOUR NEW SEVIS FORM I-20 All Hudson Valley Community College students who will be continuing their studies beyond the spring 2003 semester must be issued SEVIS Form I-20s prior to August 1, 2003. If you have not already done so, complete your SEVIS Information Request Form and submit it to the Office of International Student Services (OISS). You will be notified by e-mail once your documents are ready. II. TRAVELING WITHIN THE UNITED STATES If you believe that believe that you only need your passport and visa documents when traveling abroad you are incorrect! If you are planning to travel within the United States by car, bus, train or air plane, it is essential that you have your passport and visa documents with you. Since September 11, 2001, there has been heightened security not only at all border crossings, but also at bus terminals, train terminals, and airports throughout the United States. Police from multiple agencies; federal, state and municipal, may be patrolling these areas. People may be stopped and questioned randomly. Therefore, students are urged to be sure to have their passport, visa documents (I-94 card and Form I-20), and Hudson Valley Community College student ID card with them for ALL distance travel, even travel within New York State. In addition, be sure that your current Form I-20 has an authorizing signature for travel no older than February 28, 2003.
