For example, the office may be able to tell you which places are too dangerous to visit, provide information about health centres, businesses, lawyers, etc.<br>- In the case of loss or theft of important documents such as your passport, they should help you to get replacements so that you may return to your home country.<br>- In extreme cases may lend economic assistance in order to facilitate return to one's home country. This is usually in the form of a loan.<br>- Assist citizens that are detained in a foreign prison.<br>- Ensure nationals receive proper care in hospitals or jails of other countries.<br>Provide legal services abroad including civil registry, notary public services, etc.<br>- The consulates of some countries may help their nationals to find employment in a foreign country.<br>- In certain circumstances, act as an interpreter, guide or social assistant.</p> </font></p> <P> <a href="javascript:history.back();">Back</a> </P></p></td> </tr> </table> </div> <div id='bottombar'> <script src='scripts\email.js' type='text/javascript'></script> &nbsp;&nbsp;Tel: +34915912751<br>&copy;asdetour 2003, Francisco de Rojas, 2, Madrid, España </div> </div> <div id='leftnav'> <div class='navitem'><a href='registrarse.php?language=eng' Title='Register'>Register</a></div> <div class='navitem'><a href='https://secure4.positive-internet.com/~asdetour/english/subscribe.php?language=eng' Title='Subscribe'>Subscribe</a></div> <div class='navitem2'><a href='rights-traveller.html' Title='Your rights'>Your rights</a></div> <table cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0'><tr> <td><div class='navlist'><a href='transport.html' Title='Transport'>Transport</a></div></td></tr><tr><td> <div class='navlist'><a href='accomodation.html' Title='Accomodation'>Accomodation</a></div></td></tr><tr><td> <div class='navlist'><a href='restaurants.html' Title='Restaurants'>Restaurants</a></div></td></tr><tr><td> <div class='navlist'><a href='travel-agencies.html' Title='Travel Agencies'>Travel Agencies</a></div></td></tr><tr><td> <div class='navlist'><a href='sport-leisure.html' Title='Leisure and Sport'>Leisure and Sport</a></div></td></tr><tr><td> <div class='navlist'><a href='passports-consulates.html' Title='Passports y consulates'>Passports y consulates</a></div></td></tr><tr><td> <div class='navlist'><a href='destinations.html' Title='Other destinations'>Other destinations</a></div></td></tr><tr><td> <div class='navlist'><a href='rights-recomendations.html' Title='Rights and Recomendations'>Rights and Recomendations</a></div></td></tr></table> <br> <div class='navitem3'><a href='#' Title='Soon'>Property</a></div> <div class='navitem'><a href='consult.php?language=eng' Title='Consult on-line'>Consult on-line</a></div> <div class='navitem'><a href='travel.html' Title='Travel'>Travel</a></div> <div class='navitem'><a href='el-tiempo.html' Title='The weather'>The weather</a></div> <div class='navitem'><a href='#' Title='Soon'>Profesionals</a></div> <div class='navitem'><a href='links.html' Title='Travel Links'>Links</a></div> <div class='navitem'><a href='site-map.html' Title='Site Map'>Site Map</a></div> </div> </div> </body> </html>
