Before you go

Most business trips are planned at the last minute - challenging clients or problems with staff or products occur just when you do not need them. Still, the trip goes ahead and lasts on average just under four days (Foreign Policy Group 2003). With little time to prepare for anything other than the meeting or pitch proposal, personal safety and security considerations are often neglected.

At Planet Wise, we can work with your own internal travel departments or travel providers to ensure you get the right information about your trip first time.

Have you thought about:

  • Is the country you're going to safe?
  • Has it been cleared by the FCO? If not, your insurance could be invalid.
  • Do you have travel insurance?
  • Will your phone work in the country you're visiting?
  • Do you need inoculations and if so, how long before you leave do you need them? Again, your insurance could be invalid if jabs are taken too late

Planet Wise is able to help with all these considerations on a country specific basis if required. We are also able to provide in depth country information that is more detailed and more up to date than the FCO site, which can be emailed to you (via our subscription service).
