The U.S. Embassy is encouraging travelers leaving the United States to enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP). This free service provides email updates and alerts from U.S. embassies and consulates to citizens traveling abroad.
By signing up for STEP, travelers can receive important information about safety conditions in their destination country. The program aims to help citizens stay informed during their trips and enables embassies to contact them in case of an emergency. More details about STEP can be found on the official State Department website at https://travel.state.gov/en/international-travel/travel-advisories/smart-traveler-enrollment-program.html.
