I. Documentation

Passports, visas, ID cards, credit cards, airline tickets and certificates are the identification certificates and vouchers for traveling abroad (territory), and they must be carried with you and properly kept.

Put the original in a close-fitting underwear pocket; Before you leave, make a copy and put it in your handbag. Don't show it easily except for immigration inspection.

Once the certificate is lost, you should report to the police immediately, obtain the certificate of loss reporting, apply for an exit visa to the host country when necessary, and submit a replacement application to the embassy or consulate of China in the host country;

It is necessary to strictly abide by the relevant international conventions and the entry laws and regulations of the destination country (region), not to bring illegal drugs, not to participate in activities prohibited by the destination country (region), and to truthfully declare when bringing large amounts of cash or special drugs into or out of the country.

Second, tourism articles

It's best to go out together, try to avoid places with few people and avoid silence. The more partners there are, the less likely they are to be attacked by criminals. If you go sightseeing on weekdays, don't always hold cameras, video cameras and other equipment in your hand. It's best to put it in your backpack. Don't look at the map while walking.

We should respect the customs and habits of the host country, especially those with special religious customs, and avoid disputes caused by improper words and deeds. During the journey, always be polite and polite, don't hurt people, and don't quarrel with others, so as not to ruin the interest of yourself and your companions.

Third, emergency items.

1. In case of danger, life comes first.

After taking all precautions, in case of trouble, please adhere to this principle: in the face of robbery, kidnapping and other things that threaten personal safety, what we should do most is to put life first.

The parties concerned should keep a clear head. If there is no one around in a remote place, don't blindly call for help or fight with the bad guys. If the other party wants money, it is wise to remember the figure or appearance of the gangster, give him the money on him, and call the police quickly after the gangster leaves.

2. What should I do in the face of kidnapping?

If you are kidnapped, you should pay attention to finding opportunities for help during the transfer process. Once you meet potential rescue targets, such as police and soldiers, you should call for help in time or try to attract the attention of passers-by.

If you are directly kidnapped and thrown into the car, you should keep a clear head and remember the time and place of kidnapping and the time of arrival at the detention place. If you are blindfolded, you can estimate the driving time and distance of the vehicle by counting, remember the number of turns and the general direction, and try to listen to the sound changes along the way and the sounds coming from around the detention site with your ears. Pay attention to the conversation of kidnappers, distinguish the number of people, remember that acquaintances should pretend not to know each other, and try not to look at criminals. Never argue with the kidnappers to avoid angering them. Be good at dealing with criminals. If you ask about your family, you can tell them your parents' names and telephone numbers. But for other situations, such as the income of parents and relatives, it is best to say that you don't know.

3. What should I do in the face of unexpected events such as terrorist attacks?

In important traffic facilities, such as airports, railway stations and subway stations, calmly face emergencies, try to avoid crowded people, avoid trampling, find relatively thick stone pillars and solid walls to avoid shooting, and try to have movable tables and chairs around you as obstacles for knife attacks.

4. What should I do in the face of fraud?

Be vigilant in the face of strange phone calls, understand local laws and regulations, and don't panic when threatened by the other party. You can turn on the phone recording and call the police immediately after confirming that it is fraud.

In case of danger, you can not only call the police, but also contact the local embassy.

If you are in danger, always remember that not only the police will protect you, but also the embassies and consulates of the motherland can provide you with protection.

6. We should not only guard against external dangers, but also pay attention to our own mental health.

If you are depressed, stressed or have some psychological problems for a while, you can seek medical treatment through the school hospital or psychological clinic. Go out for a walk, take part in some activities, make friends and try to integrate into local life. The mental health of international students also needs urgent attention.

Here, I hope overseas friends can protect their personal and property safety, learn to use various means to protect themselves, and please stay calm in case of emergencies.
