Do I need a passport to cruise mexico on a ship ? |
Travel Info Do I need a passport to cruise mexico on a ship ? Travel Tips The correct answer is if you leave a US port for your Mexico cruise you DO NOT need a passport as long as your travel is completed by the end of 2007. However, the law changes in 2008 and a passport will be required to re-enter the US. Also, if you do go on your cruise to Mexico and something happens and you have to fly back to the US you WILL need a passport to get back into the country. So the best thing is to get a passport now.

Other Travel Tips yes you do I have gone on several cruises to Mexico Yes Yes, it's a new law that has just taken effect. You now need a passport when traveling to Canada or Mexico (you didn't before). I think it's more on the side of re-entering the US. No, you shouldn't need a passport. I'm a travel agent and had to look into this several times. I also recently returned from a cruise down there and I didn't need it but i brought it for safety issues. Generally the rule is if you go by air to mexico or Canada you will need a passport, but if you cruise up you won't need it. You shouldn't need it it but you should check with your cruise line since they might have different rules. Before Jan of 2008 then no, if after then yes. The passport requirements now only pertain to flying outside the US and then reentering hte US. If you are going by ship like cruise ship then you need a valid ID and birth certificate. Nothing else. It would make it easier though if you had a passport but its not required yet. |
