My husband and I are taking our 7 & 3 year old on a cruise, are there any important documents we need?

I heard you need birth certificates, passports and ID's.

The age does not matter. The law is the same for all.

On June 1, 2009 all cruise passengers will be required to possess a passport unless on a closed loop cruise (see below). Prior to that date if you are only traveling to and from Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean and Bermuda you only need documentation as indicated in the closed loop rules below. Travel to all other countries requires a passport.

U.S. citizens on closed-loop cruises (cruises that begin and end at the same port in the U.S.) will be able to enter or depart the country with proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate and government-issued photo ID. A U.S. citizen under the age of 16 will be able to present either an original or a copy of his or her birth certificate, a Consular Report of Birth Abroad issued by DOS, or a Certificate of Naturalization issued by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.

Please be aware that you may still be required to present a passport when you dock at a foreign port, depending on the islands or countries that your cruise ship is visiting. Check with your cruiseline to ensure you have the appropriate documents for the stops you’ll be making on your cruise.

Even though a passport is not required I would highly recommend one. If you get stuck in a foreign country without one you can't fly home. The passport cards that are being issued as an alternative to the passport book will not allow you to fly.

When are you going? If you are traveling after June 1st of this year everyone traveling, even on a crusie ship, will need passports. You will also need your ID's (licence or state id) as well as their birth certificates as backup


Stan P
Yes. You need to carry identification on you atleast. Even though I do not think it is neccessary for you keep IDs of your kids, it would be safe to keep their birth certificates incase of some problem.

i would bring along health insurance cards as well. but as long as you have their birth certificates and ID or passports than it sounds like you are ready to go. you should call your travel agent or the cruise line to see what other documents you would need for them and yourself.
