3. Luggage: each person shall carry a piece of hand luggage, the size of which shall not exceed 22 inches * 14 inches *9 inches; Check-in luggage is limited to one piece per person, and the weight shall not exceed 20 kg; I carry my luggage by myself. Porters are used in foreign airports and restaurants, and I pay a tip, usually $2 per trip.

Please pay attention to your luggage and watch out for pickpockets at the airport. I occasionally lose my luggage when I go to America. Please be sure to carry valuables such as cash and credit cards with you, and don't put them in the checked baggage.

4. Customs: Everyone leaving the country can carry 6,000 yuan in cash; 5000 dollars (or other foreign currencies equivalent to 5000 dollars), valuables need to be declared to the customs. If you bring more than 10000.00 USD or equivalent currency, you must fill in the US Customs Declaration Form truthfully, otherwise you will be detained. This declaration has nothing to do with China and is not recorded in China. The United States is a country without foreign exchange control, and the RMB cannot be exchanged for dollars in the United States.

5. Border inspection: Please answer the questions raised by the China-US border inspection according to the requirements of the team leader. If entering the United States can't solve the problem of immigration officers, please lead the team to answer. Please queue up when entering or leaving the country, go through customs formalities in order, don't make noise or make a loud noise, and answer questions politely. Special attention: you must keep the entry card issued by the customs after entering the United States.

6. Check-in: According to the US environmental protection law, the hotel does not provide slippers, pajamas, toothbrushes, shampoos and shower gel. Please bring your own toiletries. Please keep quiet and don't make noise in the hotel. One room for two people is the principle. When going out, the key must be placed at the front desk for the use of roommates. Please don't take anything in the room. If you want to keep it as a souvenir, please buy it from the hotel. All personal telephone charges, beverage charges, laundry charges, etc. When I check out, I will pay at the front desk.

7. Drinking water: American tap water can be drunk directly, but the hot water in the tap can't be drunk. All American hotels have no hot water supply. If you like to drink hot tea, you can bring your own hot cup.

Applicants for American tourist/family/friend visas must convince visa officers of the necessity of visiting the United States, and can return to China as scheduled after a short visit in order to successfully obtain visas. At present, most successful applicants' American tourist/visiting relatives/friends visas are valid multiple times a year.

You can go to the United States lightly and simply, especially try not to bring liquids such as wine and powders such as alkaline noodles. In this way, on the one hand, it can reduce the probability of being unpacked when entering the country or transiting at the entrance, on the other hand, it will not take too much energy and time to repack after unpacking inspection. The United States Customs absolutely does not allow fruits, meat and vegetables to be brought into China, and offenders may be severely punished. Of course, not all food can't be taken with you, such as biscuits and cupcakes, so you can take it with you on a long flight. You don't need to bring too much cash, just under $3,000, just bring a credit card that can be exchanged for foreign currency.

In addition, pay special attention to the passport, the specific contact address, telephone number and invitation letter of the children, relatives or friends who are with you for future reference so as to contact relatives and friends.
