The US State Department issues travel alerts and travel warnings by country. We post these warnings on our site, in our weekly newsletter, The Foreign Exchange. Urgent alerts are delivered via our newsletter Critical Expat News, which is delivered on an as needed basis. This newsletter is only sent when there is a major change in a country's security status and the State Department's recommendations for travel have changed significantly. Note: Many readers have asked us why we do not post alerts from other governments. We use the US State Department's alerts because they are in the public domain and we are allowed to post them on our site.
