he importance of Travel in the world is growing. Risks for travellers are evaluated by data bases from Business Assistance Companies, consultation's and hospitalisation's reports at the return. The prevention of risk relies on information, immunization and chemoprophylaxis. In France information of travellers in content, collection and actualization is of great concern for Public Reference Centers and health officials. Communication of this information for travellers is under responsability of Tour operator and Travel Agencies. Competent physicians have an important role to play in this field. Therefore, promotion of Travel Medicine is becoming important.
