Please make sure you always have proper documentation with you. Often the expiration on passports must be valid 6 months after you travel. Allow plenty of time to apply for new passports or renewals. Visit www.travel.state.gov for more information. Visas and any entry documents are the responsibility of the traveler. Agents can assist but you need to be sure everything is in order before traveling. If you are not a US citizen, contact the embassy of the country where you are traveling for specific details.
Passports are valid for 5 years if 15 years of age and under. If you are 16 or older, they are valid for 10 years. You have one year from issue date to apply for a name change based on marriage or other allowances. Be sure you hold a passport book, not card if flying or sailing internationally. The passport card is not the same identification.
We recommend that you always hold a passport whether required for your destination or not. It offers ease of showing identification and helpful when traveling with small children. Always take a copy with you during travel and leave one with a family member or friend. Some European cruise ports require you to take passport off the ship or leave with the cruise line. Be sure to have copies on hand in case of lost or stolen passports.
