Travellers, especially those travelling outside of Europe may need more forms of documentation than a simple passport.

Ask yourself:

• Do you realise how hard it is to obtain a copy of your passport if you lose all of your identification?
  
• What procedures does your company have in place if documents are lost?
  
• Does your company insurance cover foreign travel?
  
• Where and how should you store your documents to keep them safe?
  
• Should you just keep the originals with you - would copying the documents be a good idea?
  
• Do you know what an E111 is and where it's valid?
  
• Where do you go for help if you lose your credit card or think it has been duplicated?
  
• How can you prove who you are without your passport?
  
• Which countries need a Yellow Fever inoculation certificate?
  
• Can you claim on your insurance without a police report?

"My passport has become my best friend and I'll make damn sure it's never out of my sight when I'm out of the country. The guys taught me the value of my documents and how easy they are to lose - you've been warned."
Noel Graham
