    Currency limits

    Before
    No official source we could read states Brunei's cash-declaration threshold; the customs department's website publishes none. The UK's travel advice says to declare anything that may be prohibited or subject to tax or duty, through the Customs.BN app or on arrival at the airport.
    After
    The US Department of State gives BND 15,000 (about US$11,000) as Brunei's currency restriction, both on entry and on exit. No Brunei government source we could read states the threshold.

    Travel insurance

    Travel insurance

  15. Bolivia

    Travel insurance

    Before
    {"text": "Insurance is not an entry condition, but high-altitude medical care and evacuation from the Salar de Uyuni or the Amazon are expensive — cover that explicitly includes altitudes above 4,000 m is worth checking for."}
    After
    {"text": "No official source we could read states a travel-insurance requirement for Bolivia. The UK Foreign Office says the public health system is overstretched, private clinics in the main cities work with international insurance, and it is very important to have travel insurance and access to funds because you will need to pay up front for treatment."}

  16. Bolivia

    FAQ: Group 3

    Before
    Group 3 is a restricted list of nationalities for which the consulate cannot decide alone.

Group lists are revised by decree, so confirm your current status with a Bolivian consulate before making plans.
    After
    Group 3 is the list of nationalities that, according to Bolivia's migration authority (DIGEMIG), need a consular visa to enter. No official source we could read states the fee, how long a consulate takes or the permitted stay, so ask a Bolivian consulate well before you plan to travel. Group lists are revised by decree.

Group 2 pays for a tourist visa that can be issued on arrival or at a consulate. Group 3 needs prior authorization from Bolivia before a consulate can issue a visa.
