Haiti
Travel Guide
ENTRY/EXIT REQUIREMENTS: Haitian law requires U.S.
citizens to have a passport to enter Haiti. In the past, officials have
sometimes waived this requirement if travelers had a certified copy of their
U.S. birth certificate. Due to fraud concerns, however, airlines will not
board passengers for return to the United States unless they are in
possession of a valid passport. The U.S. Embassy strongly recommends that
U.S. citizens obtain passports before travel to Haiti. Once in Haiti, an
undocumented U.S. citizen can experience delays of several weeks for the
issuance of a passport, as it is often more difficult to establish identity
and citizenship overseas than in the United States. The Haitian government
requires foreigners to pay a departure fee. U.S. citizens are encouraged to
contact the Embassy of the Republic of Haiti for more details regarding
current entry, departure and customs requirements for Haiti. The
Embassy of the Republic of Haiti is
located at 2311 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. 20008; the
telephone number is (202) 332-4090, and the Internet address is
http://www.haiti.org . There are Haitian
consulates in Miami, and Orlando, Florida; Boston, Massachusetts; New York,
N.Y.; Chicago, Illinois and San Juan, Puerto Rico.

MEDICAL FACILITIES AND HEALTH INFORMATION: Medical
facilities in Haiti are scarce and for the most part sub-standard; outside
the capital standards are even lower. Medical care in Port-au-Prince is
limited, and the level of community sanitation is extremely low.
Life-threatening emergencies may require evacuation by air ambulance at the
patient's expense. Doctors and hospitals often expect immediate cash
payment for health services.
Information on vaccinations and other health precautions, such as safe
food and water precautions and insect bite protection, may be obtained from
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s hotline for international
travelers at 1-877-FYI-TRIP (1-877-394-8747)

MEDICAL INSURANCE: The Department of State strongly
urges Americans to consult with their medical insurance company prior to
traveling abroad to confirm whether their policy applies overseas and
whether it will cover emergency expenses such as a medical evacuation.
REGISTRATION / EMBASSY LOCATION: Americans living
or traveling outside of the U.S. are encouraged to register with the U.S.
Embassy through the State Department’s travel registration website,
https://travelregistration.state.gov. Americans without Internet access
may register directly with the U.S. Embassy. By registering, American
citizens make it easier for the Embassy to contact them in case of
emergency.
