International Business Travel
For travel to Foreign Countries of Concern (FCOC), please review UWL export controls & FCOC FAQ’s. Support of international travel is not automatic; all requests are evaluated by the UWL FCOC Committee and Business Services Export Control.
It is highly encouraged that all UWL employees who are traveling internationally on university business purchase additional travel insurance (CISI). It is reasonable (less than $50 a month) and provides good protections for medical and travel considerations. To sign up for the insurance, email international@uwlax.edu with the Subject Line: Person Name, Travel Insurance.
