Rules in force · 10Heat and few pavements
  • Oceania ↗Oceania's island states guard their farms and reefs at the border: tick 'yes' on the arrival card for any food, plant, animal product, soil or used outdoor gear, and let the officer decide.
  • Oceania ↗Across the tropical South Pacific, cyclones are possible from November to April: choose insurance that covers weather delays and keep one spare night before a long-haul departure.
  • Micronesia ↗Micronesia runs on a handful of weekly flights, so one cancellation can cost several days: build slack into every connection between islands.
  • Palau ↗Entry rules are Palau's own, not US rules: check the Palau Bureau of Immigration or a Palau embassy for your passport before booking.
  • Palau ↗You sign the Palau Pledge (a promise to protect the environment) in your passport on arrival; the pledge is enforced by law.
  • Palau ↗Reef-toxic sunscreens are banned and can be confiscated: bring reef-safe sunscreen and a rash vest.
  • Palau ↗The Rock Islands Southern Lagoon needs a permit (sold by tour operators); Jellyfish Lake opens or closes depending on jellyfish numbers.
  • Koror and the Rock Islands ↗The Rock Islands Southern Lagoon needs a permit, usually sold by your tour operator; book operator and permit before you fly.
  • Koror ↗Heat and few pavements: bags go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
  • Koror ↗You sign the Palau Pledge on arrival; reef-toxic sunscreen is banned and can be confiscated, so bring reef-safe sunscreen and a rash vest.
