Last updated: June 2026
The information provided on travelandteachabroad.com and in all digital products sold or distributed by Travel and Teach Abroad (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is for general informational and educational purposes only. Nothing on this website or in our products constitutes legal, financial, tax, immigration, or employment advice.
Not Professional Advice
We are not lawyers, financial advisors, tax professionals, or immigration consultants. The content we provide is based on personal experience teaching abroad and publicly available information. It should not be used as a substitute for professional advice tailored to your specific situation.
Before making any decisions about teaching abroad, we strongly recommend consulting with:
- Your school district HR department regarding leave of absence policies, tenure, and benefits
- Your union representative regarding collective bargaining agreement provisions
- Your state Teacher Retirement System regarding pension accrual and protections
- A qualified tax professional who specializes in US expat taxation
- The relevant embassy or consulate regarding visa requirements and immigration procedures
- A licensed insurance professional regarding health coverage while abroad
Accuracy of Information
We make every effort to ensure the information on this website and in our products is accurate and up to date. However, teaching abroad policies, visa requirements, salary ranges, cost of living data, program details, and government regulations change frequently and without notice.
We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any information provided. Country-specific data, including salary ranges, cost-of-living estimates, and hiring timelines, are approximations based on publicly available information at the time of writing and may not reflect current conditions in any specific location.
Individual Results
Every teacher’s experience abroad is different. Results, outcomes, and experiences described in our content and products are based on personal experience and general research. We make no guarantees regarding employment, salary, savings, visa approval, leave of absence approval, or any other specific outcome.
Your experience will depend on your individual qualifications, the country and school you choose, your financial situation, your district’s specific policies, and many other factors outside our control.
Leave of Absence Information
Information provided about school district leave of absence policies, tenure protections, and pension accrual is general guidance only. Leave of absence policies vary significantly by state, school district, and union contract. The availability, terms, and conditions of a leave of absence depend entirely on your specific employer and applicable collective bargaining agreements. Always verify your district’s current policy directly with your HR department and obtain any approvals in writing before making commitments.
Tax Information
Information about US tax obligations while living abroad, including references to the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIE), FBAR filing requirements, and state tax obligations, is general information only and does not constitute tax advice. US tax law is complex and your specific situation may differ from the general guidance provided. Always consult a qualified tax professional before making decisions based on tax-related information in our products.
