You may have some questions about international travel and if any travel requirements will impact your arrival.
Please be advised that au pair arrivals may sometimes be delayed beyond their original start dates. AuPairCare may need to reschedule arrivals for some au pairs if they are affected by visa delays, travel disruptions, illness, or other unforeseen complications, and we will contact you if that is the case.
We strongly encourage you to factor the information below into your matching and arrival timeline.
Visa Processing
For all countries, we recommend au pairs follow the visa application process as outlined by their local overseas representative and subject to embassy guidance. To avoid any additional delays to your arrival, we ask that au pairs update their portal with their visa appointment date once scheduled, and reach out to their local representative with any questions.

Au Pair Arrival Information
- Please visit the CDC's webpage on international travel for current information on travel into the USA.
- Wearing a mask over your nose and mouth is recommended in indoor areas of public transportation (including airplanes) traveling into, within, or out of the United States and indoors in U.S. transportation hubs (including airports).
Other Travel Delays
Au pairs should review their AuPairCare travel instructions carefully, prepare for potentially long lines at the airport, bring enough spending money for additional meals in case of last-minute delays or cancellations, and communicate proactively with AuPairCare Flights Team if support is needed on their travel day(s).
Thank you again for your continued support of the au pair program. We witness daily the benefits that international cultural exchange brings to all participants and we look forward to continuing to joining au pairs and host families together.
