What should I pay attention to when traveling abroad?

Traveling abroad is a happy thing. Because the social environment, ideas, customs, historical background, laws and regulations abroad are quite different from those in China, there are noteworthy safety problems in eating, living, traveling, shopping and entertainment during traveling abroad, which can be summarized into eight aspects. I. Security of documents Passports, ID cards, credit cards, airline tickets and documents are the ID cards and documents for traveling abroad, especially when going through entry-exit inspection, you must carry them with you from beginning to end and keep them properly. And before going abroad, you'd better make a copy of each of the above documents, put them in your handbag with some passport photos, and write down your passport number for emergencies. A. Once the certificate is lost or stolen, you should immediately report it to the tour guide or report it to the police. You can quickly prove your identity with a spare copy. B At the same time, please ask the police to issue a written report of loss, apply for an exit visa to the host country if necessary, and apply to the consulate of China in the host country for a replacement. Second, if property safety is not necessary, don't carry a lot of cash and valuables when you leave the country. China people are easy to be stolen. One of the important reasons is that we have the habit of carrying a lot of cash with us. At the same time, be careful not to put cash and valuables in checked baggage, nor do you put cash and valuables in hotels or coaches. The correct way: you can store it in the safe in the front desk and room of the hotel, but you should keep your documents and keys well and remember the password of the safe. Once you find money lost or stolen, you should immediately report it to the tour guide and ask them to negotiate with the hotel. If you lose your documents in airports, hotels and tour buses, you should consult with the relevant parties and tour leaders, and you can call the police as appropriate and ask them to issue more detailed proof of loss. Third, the safety of accommodation If a stranger sends something to your room, you should call the front desk to confirm before opening the door. If you receive harassing calls, you should complain immediately so that the hotel front desk can find clues in time. Be sure to close and lock the door at any time when entering or leaving the room, and keep the key of your room. When you go out, you should take a card with the hotel location and contact number with you to ensure that you can return safely after getting lost. Pay attention to self-protection when exercising in the hotel gym and swimming pool. Before checking out every time, you should carefully check your luggage, paying special attention to documents and important documents and valuables stored. Four. When taking photos and videos for sightseeing safety, you should pay attention to passing vehicles and whether there are signs prohibiting shooting. Don't stop to take photos where there are danger warning signs. In addition, if there are exciting activities during the trip or free activities, don't take part because you think you have paid the money, do what you can, don't take unmarked vehicles, don't watch traffic accidents and street disputes, and don't return too late. Five, personal safety when taking boats, speedboats and other water vehicles, you should wear life jackets. Don't panic in case of a traffic accident. Take self-help and mutual rescue measures to protect the scene of the accident and report to the team leader and the police immediately. Stay away from drugs, don't talk to strangers to prevent personal injury. When personal safety is threatened and injured, you should immediately report the case to the local police, obtain written proof from the police and provide protection. At the same time, notify travel agencies, relief agencies, insurance companies, China's embassies and consulates in the host country, etc. And keep all original documents, including traffic, accident certificate, diagnosis certificate, medical expense receipt, forensic identification certificate, etc. And then hand it over to the insurance company for settlement. 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. When encountering natural disasters such as earthquakes or political turmoil, wars, sudden terrorist incidents or accidental injuries, we should calmly respond, evacuate the dangerous area as soon as possible, and promptly report to the embassy or consulate of China in the host country or contact domestic departments for rescue and protection. In addition, tourists should buy travel accident insurance before going abroad, and at the same time confirm the scope of protection in this travel itinerary. If in doubt, you can ask the insurance company or insurance agent. Sixth, shopping safety should be cautious when shopping, it is best to buy goods in regular stores to avoid trouble when returning goods. The airport only handles the tax refund business of shops that have agreements with the airport, that is to say, the chain stores that have hung up the number at the airport can really realize the tax refund. Therefore, tourists must ask whether this store can really handle tax refund service at the airport before shopping. In addition, if the amount you buy does not reach the tax refund quota, members of several groups can get together to invoice for tax refund, which is more economical. Seven. Baggage safety According to the regulations of China Customs, each person is limited to one standard hand luggage (55㎝/23㎝/36㎝), and the checked baggage is not more than 20kg. Be sure to remember: certificates, air tickets, any kind of cash and valuables must not be checked. 8. laws and regulations according to the regulations of the national tourism administration, tourists are not allowed to set foot in pornographic places abroad. If an accident happens without authorization, it has nothing to do with the travel agency, and the consequences will be borne by itself. In order to deal with the so-called interrogation of the fake police, you can ignore it because you don't know a foreign language, or ask him to go to the police station to talk.
