Faculty and Staff traveling (without students) on behalf of the University of Notre Dame should take the following steps before going abroad:
Travel Registry
Register international travel in the university’s Travel Registry prior to departure so that NDI has information about your trip and can contact you in the event of an emergency. You will receive a confirmation email when you have completed all your Travel Registry steps. The University may not be fully able to assist or arrange evacuation for those who do not register travel through the NDI Travel Registry.
IMPORTANT: Faculty and staff who accompany students abroad, particularly undergraduates, must fulfill the requirements outlined on the Trip Leader page.
Health Insurance
Learn about your international travel health insurance coverage for your destination. For more information, please visit the Office of Human Resources Benefits While Traveling Abroad and the NDI International Health Insurance page.
U.S. Department of State & Center for Disease Control
Review U.S. Department of State safety and security information and advice for your destination and CDC information for travel health notices and immunization requirements. For information about travel health and immunizations, please visit the Office of Human Resources Benefits While Traveling Abroad and Wellness Center pages.
Smart Traveler Enrollment Program
Enroll in STEP (U.S Department of State Smart Traveler Enrollment Program). STEP is a free service to allow U.S. citizens/nationals traveling abroad to enroll with the local U.S. Embassy or Consulate; a Smart Traveler app is also available. Non-U.S. passport holders should leave the passport field blank when registering, and contact their home country’s government to learn about available additional support.
