What is STEP?
The Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) is a free service to allow U.S. citizens and nationals traveling and living abroad to enroll their trip with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate.

Benefits of Enrolling in STEP

1) Receive important information from the Embassy about safety conditions in your destination country, helping you make informed decisions about your travel plans.

2) Help the U.S. Embassy contact you in an emergency, whether natural disaster, civil unrest, or family emergency.


3) Help family and friends get in touch with you in an emergency.
