Travel Advice
Preparing to travel to the United States is an exciting part of your international experience. Our USA travel advice is designed to help Yummy Jobs participants prepare for their journey, understand important travel requirements and know where to find reliable information before departure.
Travel and entry requirements can vary depending on your nationality, visa category and individual circumstances. They may also change over time. Therefore, we recommend checking official sources regularly as you prepare for your program.
Preparing for Travel to the USA
Before travelling, make sure your passport, visa and program documentation are ready and valid for your journey. You should also review any current entry requirements that may apply to travellers from your country.
Requirements can change, so always use official government sources for the latest information. You can find useful updates through the U.S. Department of State, including information about visa processing and international travel.
Before departure, we also recommend keeping important program documents accessible in your hand luggage rather than checked baggage. Review the pre-arrival information provided for your specific program, as requirements may differ depending on your placement and visa category.
