International Visitors
Overview
The Division of International Technical Cooperation organizes meetings at the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) for many
international visitors each year. Visits are arranged for individuals, as well as for
groups of all sizes. Visitors include
economists, statisticians, researchers, analysts, managers, academics,
trade union representatives, business leaders, and journalists. The length of a typical visit ranges from one hour to half of one day. If you are interested in a longer visit,
please see the information on Customized Seminars.
Meetings are conducted in English. Non-English speaking visitors must bring their own interpreter. Every visit
is unique and is organized to meet the needs and interests of the
visitor(s).
Request a visit
To request a visit to the BLS, please submit an online inquiry.
Requests for visits should be made as far in advance as possible, and
include the following information:

Security procedures
Everyone is required to enter the BLS through the First Street,
NE entrance (between Massachusetts Avenue and G Street, NE) across from Union
