CRUISE LINE PRE-REGISTRATION PROCEDURES
The United States Border Security Act requires cruise ship passengers to pre-register for their cruises prior to arriving at the pier. Complete your pre-registration online or by fax and reduce your wait time to board the ship. Once you pre-register, many cruise lines also give you the ability to reserve other items in advance which can include shore excursions, spa treatments, specialty dining and more. You MUST have your cruise line reservation number in order to pre-register online.

US BORDER SECURITY ACT
The Advance Passenger Information System (APIS) is an automated system capable of performing database searches on passengers and crewmembers prior to their arrival in or departure from the United States. APIS requires all cruise lines collect additional immigration information from their passengers prior to any cruise to or from the United States. As a convenience to our guests, you can provide this required information to the cruise line prior to arriving at the pier on embarkation day. By completing this information in advance, you can avoid long delays at the pier,
You must also bring your passports or other proof of citizenship with you to check in. If you do not provide any piece of the required data, you may be denied boarding without a refund.
Information required for ALL PASSENGERS include:
- Complete Legal Name
- Date of Birth
- Gender
- Residence Address
- Country of Citizenship
In addition, non-U.S. citizens must provide
- Passport Number and Country of Passport Issuance
- Passport Issue Date
- Passport Expiry Date
- Country of Residence
- Alien Registration Number ( if resident of the United Sates)
- U.S. Address while visiting U.S. (if not resident of the U.S.)
Passengers who are citizens of a country that require a visa to enter the United States, and are not U.S. or Canadian resident aliens, must also secure a valid U.S. visa and provide the following:
- U.S. Visa Number
- Visa Issue Date

Alaska Cruise Expert
Canadian Visa for Travel to Alaska - Non-US Citizens
The Canadian government requires foreign citizens from most countries other than the U.S. to obtain a visa for entry into Canada. This law affects all cruises that make a port of call in Canada including most cruises to and from Alaska and the Pacific Coast. Failure to present the required visa will result in denied boarding with no refund. To learn if Canada requires a visa for citizens of your country, we highly recommend you contact with your embassy or consulate for more information and to learn the entry requirements of the countries on your itinerary. You may also contact Zier visa Service
(http://www.zvs.com) Again, All travelers are responsible to learn of the documentation requirements for your
vacations.
| Please
read carefully. All foreign flagged cruise ships traveling to
Alaska will make stops in both the United States and Canada; and, some
longer, repositioning Alaska cruises may begin and end in Mexico or
another country. As a result, ALL passengers, regardless of
nationality, are required to carry valid Proof of Citizenship and
documentation before you will be allowed to board your cruise ship.
Bringing proper proof of citizenship including passports, visas, photo
identification is the responsibility of the guest. Any guest traveling
without proper documentation will be denied boarding by the cruise ship
and no refund of the cruise fare will be issued by the cruise line or
