Important scope note
Created by Richard Neckar, a Family Nurse Practitioner and long-stay travel researcher.
The First 90 Days Abroad System is general educational and organizational information for U.S. readers considering a temporary overseas stay. It is not legal, immigration, tax, financial, insurance, medical, safety, or relocation advice.
The healthcare sections are for general planning and organization only. They do not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, dosage advice, medication substitution advice, or individualized clearance to travel. Talk with your clinician, pharmacist, insurer, and official destination sources before making healthcare decisions abroad.
Rules and personal circumstances vary and change. Verify entry, visa, tax, healthcare, prescription, insurance, banking, driving, work authorization, and residency questions with official sources or qualified professionals before relying on them.
