Documentation

Travellers, especially those travelling outside of Europe may need more forms of documentation than a simple passport. During this section of the course, Planet Wise tutors will advise on…

  • Don't forget your important documents!

    Passports
  • Insurance
  • Inoculations
  • Contact numbers
  • Emergency help

We will also advise you on how to store documents whilst travelling and why keeping copies is a good idea.

Do you know, for example, if you will need…

  • Separate forms of documentation if you are planning to work or volunteer whilst abroad?
  • A particular type of visa to cover extended periods of travel in certain countries?
  • Documentation to cover medical treatment abroad, E.G. form E111?
  • Travellers cheques?
  • Credit cards?
  • Specialist insurance for adventurous activities?

Passport

Form E111 from Post Offices

The correct visas

On the subject of insurance, did you know that some 20% of young people travel with little or no insurance during their trip.

We've seen examples of simple claims for falling off a horse costing some £6,000 whilst a rescue from Alaska cost almost £750,000.

Don't be a headline - make sure you have good cover.
