Registration for Iowa State University-sponsored international travel is required of all faculty, staff and students. For travel registration purposes, US territories and protectorates should be considered as international as well. To register international travel, log in with ISU ID to the Travel Registry Site here. Resources for international travel and risk, including a link to the registration page and information about the global assistance and insurance program can be found on the Office of Risk Management's international travel website.
ISU is engaged in a variety of global initiatives and activities including research, service, outreach, recruitment, and study abroad. In order to facilitate these activities, the university needs to be able to provide appropriate resources to travelers, promote the safety and security of these travelers, and comply with domestic and international laws. These resources include providing international travel emergency assistance and health insurance, complying with export control regulations and the Fly America act, advising travelers of safety and security concerns, and providing material resources such as travel laptops and satellite phones. More detail about the policy can be found in ISU's policy library.
