The National Secretary in your own country or the International General Secretary will send you further information and will arrange an interview for you. If there is no National Secretary in your country, you will be sent a Letter of Introduction form for you to fill in and instructions on how you can contact the most convenient Servas interviewer. Servas Officers are all volunteers. It takes time to prepare, schedule and perform an interview. Allow plenty of time for the interview and approval process. Contact Servas at least four weeks before your departure date. It is important to understand that no one can be approved as a Servas traveller without an interview by an authorized Servas member.
You will also need time to contact the hosts you would like to visit.
When you meet with your local Servas interviewer, remember to bring your passport and an additional passport photo with you. There may be a small travel fee involved. Your local Servas representatiave will provide you with this information. When approved, the new Servas traveller will receive a Letter of Introduction, which is signed, stamped and dated. This is known as the traveller’s Servas passport and is valid for one year. Traveller Responsibilities - Payment of deposit for Host List
