Foreign Travel Advice

A
Written by Amandine Farrugia

Quick Summary

If you've received a moderation prompt on your script, it may be because your content appears to discuss topics restricted under our foreign travel and immigration content policies. Because misleading and unverified foreign travel and immigration advice can cause real harm, our policies place some restrictions on what foreign travel and immigration content can be created with stock avatars.

The good news: you can still create videos giving general and verifiable information about immigration processes, rules, laws, and agencies using a stock avatar. In many cases, small wording adjustments are enough to resolve the issue. The key is moving from specific instruction or promotion toward factual, educational framing.


How to Fix This

If you want to use a stock avatar, review your script to ensure it:

  • Presents explanations of immigration processes and rules as general, verifiable information without specific guarantees

  • Avoids instructing the audience to take specific actions in situations involving foreign travel and immigration processes

  • Removes statements that promote, recommend, or endorse specific visas, immigration opportunities, or destinations

If rewriting your script toward factual, educational content isn't possible for your use case (for example, if you're explaining specific visa requirements or recommending immigration pathways), switching to a custom avatar may allow you to use your original wording. You can discuss a broader range of foreign travel and immigration topics with a custom avatar than with stock avatars.

All content should also avoid statements containing misleading, unverified foreign travel and immigration advice, and any promotion or endorsement of fraudulent or illegal foreign travel activities.

📌 Including a disclaimer statement (such as "This is not immigration advice") does not guarantee your video will pass moderation if it discusses restricted topics. The framing and content of your script matter more than disclaimers.

Key Reminder

✍️ Depending on your content, there may be more than one compliant path. Some changes will make your script suitable for stock avatars, while others may still require a personal or studio avatar, an enterprise workspace, or in some cases, may not be supported on the platform.

If your script was flagged, the guidance above should help you understand both how to edit your content and what type of account or avatar is needed to create it successfully. Feel free to make your edits and try again.
