Clothing rules for travelers
Check what you can wear at religious sites and in public before you pack or head out.
Clothing rules can affect what you pack and wear on a trip. This section covers dress codes at temples, mosques and churches, along with laws that regulate clothing in public. Rules differ by place, so check the requirements for the specific site or destination before you choose what to bring.
Use these guides to check what religious sites ask visitors to wear and what local law requires in public. Each guide links to an official rule so you can read its wording before you pack or visit. If a rule applies to your plans, choose clothing that meets it and think about whether you can change or cover up during the day. These guides cover dress requirements, not weather, comfort or general packing advice. Start with the type of rule you need to check, then follow the link to the relevant official source.
