teresaandvince Posted May 14, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 14, 2023 My husband's adult daughter is a German citizen and is going to go on a cruise with us. We are leaving from Miami with stops in Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, St Maarten, Antigua, St Thomas and Great Stirrup Cay. We know she needs ETSA to fly to the US but are getting conflicting answers as far as the cruise line. She holds a German passport. Does anyone know of anything else that needs for the cruise line.

Fruitpunch76 Posted May 15, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Hi there! I am a German citizen as well and I always need ESTA and my passport for the cruiseline and to go into the USA. I was on the Encore some weeks ago... I hope this helps. Happy Cruising!😉 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for all EU nationals (holding a "local" passport), she needs only the ESTA for USA in addition to her German passport to cruise in the Caribbean. I am a Norwegian citizen myself, and in most parts of the world will have the same travel document requirements as a German citizen, and I have also been to a 20 days South America cruise (with NCL) along the coastline from Chile all the way up to San Fransisco, and all I needed in addition to my Norwegian passport was the ESTA for entering USA and visiting American ports. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare steamboats Posted May 15, 2023 #4 Share Posted May 15, 2023 From another German citizen... Passport for the whole duration of the cruise is sufficent. Additionally she needs ESTA for traveling to the US. steamboats 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teresaandvince Posted May 15, 2023 Author #5 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Thank you all, that is what I was thinking but the closer it gets the more nervous I was that at the last minute something was going to come up that we needed to get or do. This is a very special cruise for my husband as he does not get to see her very often and would be crushed if we got to the ship and for some unseen reason she was denied boarding.

Rare steamboats Posted May 16, 2023 #6 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Just make sure, that the passport is valid for at least 6 months after the end of the cruise. That´s usually required by the cruise lines (not by the visited countries). steamboats 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
