I agree with you that some of the new regulations seem absurd to us, but can you imagine how our policies appear to the rest of the world. Our entry policies are much more restrictive that most nations. My wife and I visited Honduras for two weeks in June. All we had to do is present our passports and declare certain items. That's it!! Can you imagine what a Honduran must do to get in here.

My point is simple; it's their country and we should gladly comply with whatever regulations that they feel are important to their country. Just as those entering this country should do. Complaining about the new regs, seems to me to be too prevalent on this board.

I do appreciate Hud3 presenting us with the new regs. This info will be very helpful to many.
