In addition to entry documents, it could also be helpful to bring, Travel Insurance Documents, Booking Confirmations and Emergency Contact Information.

The type of clothing you need to pack depends on which season you’re visiting in. In general, we recommend bringing comfortable shoes for exploring in. during the warmer months (spring and summer) it is recommended you bring light layers such as t-shirts, shorts or skirts, a light jumper for cooler evenings, and sun protection like a hat, sunglasses, and scarf. In autumn and winter bring warm layers including sweaters, long-sleeve tops, a fleece, and a coat, as well as a scarf, hat, gloves, and thermal base layers if heading into the mountains. A waterproof outer layer and sturdy winter boots are important for rain or snow.

A portable power bank is very useful for long sightseeing days, and headphones or earbuds, ideally noise-cancelling, make flights and bus rides more pleasant. If you enjoy photography, consider bringing a camera with extra batteries, memory cards, and perhaps a compact tripod or selfie stick. Tablets or e-readers are good for entertainment.
