If you’re someone who conducts international business on a regular basis, there are certain travel programs that you simply need to take advantage of. The Global Entry program is a key one, and the APEC business travel card (ABTC) can be just as important for quickly navigating international airports and customs with minimal stress.

APEC stands for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation. It’s an economic forum that was made to support business relationships between twenty-one different countries in the Asia-Pacific region. APEC member countries include the United States, Brunei, Australia, Canada, Chile, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Peru, the Philippines, Russia, Singapore, Chinese Taipei, Thailand, and Vietnam.
