‍The holiday season is getting started, and international travel brings compliance risks for HR teams.

A valid visa stamp in a passport does not guarantee re-entry into the US.

For foreign national employees, routine international travel can trigger significant immigration issues that only surface once they have left the country. From consular backlogs to unpredictable Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers, the risks are real.

A delayed re-entry doesn’t just inconvenience the employee. It affects payroll, client deliverables, and workforce planning.

Join WayLit’s experts for a 45-minute session designed to give HR leaders a clear, practical checklist to manage international travel risks for employees based in the US.
