Travel Documents - Celebrity CruisesWhat documents do I need to sail?
(1) Express Pass (obtained via online check-in), or embarkation forms
(2) Valid passport (no photocopies) - for exceptions, see the Passport Requirements section
(3) Visa, if applicable - for more details, see the Visas section
(4) Health papers, if applicable - for more information, see the Health/Inoculations section
Why is having the required documentation important?
Guests who do not possess the proper documentation may be prevented from boarding their flight or ship, or from disembarking or entering a country, and may be subject to fines.
Also, it is important that the name on the reservation be exactly as it is stated on the passport or other official citizenship document. If a name has changed since the document was issued (ie.marriage/divorce), it is required that the document be updated with the new name, or provide official supporting document(s) of the name change. Otherwise, it may result in delay or possible denial of boarding.  |  | OUR RECOMMENDATION
Celebrity Cruises® strongly recommends that all guests travel with a valid passport with at least six (6) months validity during their cruise (and if traveling to Ecuador, it is required). This greatly assists guests who may need to fly out of the United States to meet their ship at the next available port should they miss their scheduled embarkation in a U.S. port; guests entering the U.S. at the end of their cruise; and guests needing to fly to the U.S. before their cruise ends because of medical, family, personal or business emergencies, missing a ship's departure from a port of call, involuntary disembarkation from a ship due to misconduct, or other reasons.
Guests who need to fly to the United States before their cruise ends will likely experience significant delays and complications related to booking airline tickets and entering the United States if they do not have a valid U.S. passport with them. For additional passport information, visit the U.S Department of State website or the passport service of your choice, such as CIBT website - Passport And Visa Service.
For more information on Special Groups (requirements for U.S. and Canadian children, groups of children, U.S. Military...), please visit the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol website.
CRUISE / CRUISETOUR DOCUMENTS
Your cruise/cruisetour documents provide information relevant to the sailing. Normally, documents will be received 30-50 days prior to sailing, assuming cruise elements are finalized and payments made. Group and Air/Sea documents require additional steps and will normally be received within 30 days of sailing.
Documentation for bookings will be provided electronically via the Internet (eDocs). A printed version of the cruise document can be obtained for a fee of $35 per book.
Documents may not be provided in advance for bookings finalized the week of sailing - you will obtain pertinent details at the pier prior to boarding and onboard the ship. Regardless of document status, no one will be allowed passage unless his or her name appears on the ship's guest manifest. All cruise/cruisetour tickets and air arrangements are valid only for the named passenger and may not be sold or transferred.
GUEST EMBARKATION FORMS
In order to make your boarding process as simple as possible, we offer an online method for providing information we need before you can embark on the vessel. Just visit Celebrity Cruises Online Check-In to fill out your embarkation forms. For those who do not provide the information online, embarkation forms will automatically be included with your cruise documents. Please fill out these forms before you leave.

NOTE: Applicable laws and regulations may require Celebrity to collect and pass on to governmental and other authorized bodies certain personal and other details related to you. If you fail to supply the details requested fully and accurately, you may not be permitted to board the ship or your flight. If, as a result of your failure to comply with the foregoing, Celebrity incurs any fines, surcharges or other financial penalty, you will be responsible for reimbursing us accordingly.
Make sure you have the proper forms of identification needed for your particular trip. Give yourself plenty of time to obtain or renew your passport, if necessary.
PASSPORT REQUIREMENTS
Before leaving home, please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the required travel documents you will be asked to provide prior to boarding the ship.
CAUTION: The requirements described below are government regulations and policies. They are subject to change without notice. It is the sole responsibility of the guest to identify and obtain all required travel documents and have them available when necessary. These appropriate valid travel documents, such as passports, visas, inoculation certificate and family legal documents, are required for boarding and re-entry into the United States and other countries. For your protection (and if traveling to Ecuador, it is required), we recommend that your passport expiration date not occur within six (6) months following the voyage termination date.
Guests who do not possess the proper documentation may be prevented from boarding their flight or ship or from entering a country and maybe subject to fines.
No refunds will be given to individuals who fail to bring proper documentation.
