Use Two-Step Login when you Travel Outside the US

How to use Two-Step login when outside the United States

This article applies to: Two-Step Login

You can use Two-Step Login when you travel internationally to countries, other than those listed below. 

Even if there is no cell or data service available for your smartphone, you can still use a hardware token to generate a passcode.

For detailed instructions on using hardware passcodes for Two-Step Login, see Use a hardware token for Two-Step Login instead of a phone.

IMPORTANT: If you are traveling to Cuba, Iran, Crimea, North Korea, Syria, or Sudan, you must delete the Duo Mobile app from any devices you take with you. Also, you cannot take a Duo hardware token with you. 

Both Duo Mobile and the hardware tokens use cryptographic technology that is subject to Federal export control regulations.
