MrDan Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 We are taking our grown children on Freedom of the Seas (Bahamas) in June, and we just happened to stumble across this rule that your passport supposedly needs to be good for 6 month after your travel dates. One person in our group has their passport expiring in August. So is this a real concern we need to have? We sail in less than 8 weeks, so getting a new passport isn't realistic at this time, right? Does she need to bring ID and birth certificate at this point? Other options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steverk Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 Is it a closed loop sailing in the US? if so, I'd try to use the passport, but bring a birth certificate as a backup DonR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordell1 Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 It only matters if the country that you are visiting requires it to be within the 6 months. The is a common requirement in Europe, but not the Caribbean. I would bring a driver license and birth certificate just to he on the safe side, but you should be ok.

MrDan Posted April 18 Author Report Share Posted April 18 UPDATE: She just spent over an hour on hold with Royal Caribbean to be sure, and they told her since it was a closed loop Bahamas cruise she was okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
