The ORA Research Security Team is offering to provide travel attestations for Harvard researchers traveling internationally over Winter Recess with Harvard-owned data and/or materials. The travel attestation consists of a letter from the PI and an export control certification from the Research Security team confirming that the researcher has University permission to travel internationally with Harvard-owned data and/or materials and does not require an export control license to do so. Requests and questions concerning travel attestations may be directed to the International Collaborations Inbox. All requests for travel attestations should be submitted no later than 9:00 AM on Friday, December 13th to ensure completion by Winter Recess. If an urgent item arises after this deadline, please let us know the source of the urgency and need-by date when submitting the item for review.
 
OVPR released a new International Travel Guidance When Traveling Through U.S. Airports and what to expect when engaging with CBP. We recommend all those traveling internationally to review this information.
