You will need a suitcase which is easy to move around and allows you to carry all your essential items. Ideally, it should not be so large that it troubles you when you walk with it. You will also need to carry a briefcase for important official and personal documents related to the trip. -

Business Related Essentials
That’s the first thing you should be worrying about packing. Make sure that you pack all the necessary documents and any hardware that you may need during the trip for business purposes with you. This will save you from problems later on. -

Clothing
Pack as per the length of the trip. You will need more formal dressing for the meetings. Casual wear will do just fine for other times. Make sure that you do not over pack the casual clothing since that can be a burden.
In case the trip gets longer, you can always grab some clothes from the area that you have travelled to. -

Personal Hygiene Products
Products such as tooth paste, tooth brush, shaving kit and other personal grooming essentials should be packed along. They are important as you will need to appear presentable during the official time. Also if you have any special needs in this matter, such as a specific soap needed to avoid allergies, make sure that you pack such items along. -

Personal Essentials
It is important to not forget items of importance at a personal level. These particularly include medications if you need any. You should also pack a camera, cell phone and your choice of entertainment which can help you through the journey and when you are sitting idle doing nothing. -

What not to Pack
Non-essentials such as library or club membership cards should not be taken along. Similarly, it is best to only take one or two credit cards and the rest should be left at home unless you need them. Keep a decent amount of travel cash but you do not need to carry tons of it. Use your debit card for withdrawing money.
