Important Notice about personal travel to China, North Korea, Iran, Cuba, Russia and Venezuela.
Governor Abbott issued Executive Order GA-48. This order creates additional requirements for Texas public education institutions and other state agencies regarding activities involving China, North Korea, Iran, Cuba, Russia and Venezuela.
Pursuant to Executive Order GA-48, all UTSA personnel:
- are prohibited from accepting any gifts, regardless of value, from an entity associated with the countries listed above;
- are prohibited from traveling on behalf of UTSA to the countries listed above; and
- must notify UTSA of any personal travel to the countries listed above prior to that travel and submit a post travel brief outlining the details of the trip, including the dates and purpose of the travel. We have created an online form to facilitate this process.
We understand this order may affect ongoing or planned activities, and we are committed to working with you to navigate these changes. If you have any questions, please contact UTSA’s Office of Global Initiatives at global@utsa.edu or 210-458-7211.
