www.getyouhome.gov

Getting ready to travel or study outside of the U.S.? This .gov website will help you learn the rules before you hit the road.

www.getyouhome.gov links directly to the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI), which provides information about travel into Canada that has been in effect since June 1, 2009.

Another option on www.getyouhome.gov discusses travel to the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games.

www.getyouhome.gov also links directly to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), at www.cbp.gov/travel. CBP is a branch of the Department of Homeland Security and is involved with terrorism prevention, border patrol, trade, travel and enforcing the regulations of immigration and drug laws (CBP,2010).

So if you are traveling out of the U.S., know others who are interested in entering the U.S., or just want to find a Port of Entry, start your travels with www.getyouhome.gov
