Don't Forget about Departure Tax when Studying Abroad!

Certain countries require a departure tax, and it’s best to be prepared prior to arrival at the airport for your departure flight. As prices are subject to change, we recommend you double-check with the embassy at http://www.embassyworld.com/ prior to your study abroad trip to make sure you will have enough money.
