1. Post grants country clearance to US Treasury representative Fred
Borakove for travel to Jamaica September 4, 2006 through September
8, 2006. Post understands the traveler is to present a financial
profiling course for the tax administration department (TAAD).
2. The Control Officer for this visit will be Economic Officer John
Morgan, telephone number (876) 935-6028; Fax no. (876) 935-6029.
3. Post confirms that no additional assistance is required.
4. Visitors traveling to Jamaica for periods less than two weeks do
not require a visa.
5. There has been no specific threat directed against official
American visitors or American tourists who visit Jamaica. However,
Jamaica has been designated a high threat country because of street
crime. It is recommended that caution be exercised while traveling
in Kingston. Walking after dark is not advised. Care should be
taken if driving at night. Overall, the same level of awareness
should be exercised as in a similar sized city in the United
States.
6. Travelers' checks can be exchanged for Jamaican dollars at a
local bank located near the Embassy. ATM machines are also
available.
