COVID-19 Resources
The Foreign Affairs Committee staff has been working around the clock to provide House offices with the latest information we are receiving on the State Department’s repatriation efforts and to help those offices address concerns from thousands of Americans overseas. Below you'll find resources from the Committee and Department of State that may be of use for Americans around the globe impacted by this crisis.
The State Department has created a 24-hour public hotline for Americans abroad:
- U.S. and Canada: 888-407-4747
- Overseas: 202-501-4444
- Travelers are also urged to enroll in the State Department’s Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) to receive alerts and make it easier to locate them in an emergency.
