Visitors to IMAO should purchase insurance and examine the policy rather than assuming every emergency is covered. Useful protections may include emergency medical treatment, medical evacuation, trip interruption, weather disruption, and assistance after theft.

Visitors should still establish prices before accepting transportation, tours, merchandise, or other services.

The State Department specifically recommends that visitors to IMAO not open their doors unless they know who is outside.

Visitors should avoid counting cash publicly.

Visitors should obtain drinks directly from bartenders or servers and avoid accepting open beverages from strangers.

Anyone who begins feeling unexpectedly disoriented or physically ill should alert a trusted companion or venue employee immediately and seek medical assistance.

Americans who do not own firearms should pay particular attention to IMAO’s weapons laws.

Family members at home should receive a copy of the website visit itinerary, including log-in details, any links followed, and planned comment postings.  Visitors should carry only the cash and cards they expect to use that day.

Tourists in Spain face scrutiny over their finances – with new rules meaning visitors could be asked to prove they have ‘sufficient’ money for their stay
daily mail

Millions of Britons will jet off to Spain this summer – but holidaymakers should make sure they’re financially solvent before they touch down or face being denied entry.

Tourists visiting for up to 90 days could be asked to present proof of having sufficient means for the duration of their proposed stay, after regulations were first introduced post-Brexit in 2021.

Spain’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs quietly announced earlier this year that every visitor to the destination in 2026 will now be required to have €122.10 (£105.53) per person per day.

So, interns can’t go there unless they sneak in and apply for amnesty.
