• Travel Insurance: Consider purchasing travel insurance to protect yourself against unexpected events like flight cancellations, medical emergencies, or lost luggage.
• Medical Records (Optional): While not mandatory, bringing copies of your medical history, including any allergies or medications you take, can be helpful for your consultation with our dentists.

Important
• Pack a Backup: Bring an extra pair of glasses or contacts – lost luggage or broken frames happen!
• Double Up on Documents: Make photocopies of your passport and immunization records, storing them separately from the originals. This streamlines replacement if needed.
• Medications for Peace of Mind: Pack enough medication to last your entire trip, plus a buffer of a few extra days in case of unforeseen delays. Ensure proper storage to protect from heat and humidity.
• Vaccinations: While not mandatory, ensure your routine vaccinations are up-to-date for added peace of mind.
