For US Domestic Travelers 18 years of age or older, you will require a valid, government issued photo identification.

Acceptable Forms of Identification

To pass through a TSA security checkpoint, you must present one of the following:

• REAL ID-compliant driver's license or state-issued identification card (typically marked with a star in the upper portion).
• U.S. Passport or Passport Card.
• DHS Trusted Traveler Cards (such as Global Entry, NEXUS, SENTRI, or FAST).
• U.S. Military ID (including IDs issued to dependents).
• State-issued Enhanced Driver’s License (EDL).
• Permanent Resident Card (Green Card).
• Border Crossing Card.
• Native American Tribal Photo ID.
• Foreign government-issued passport.
• Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC).

Important Notes

• Children: Travelers under the age of 18 are not required to provide identification when traveling within the United States.
• TSA ConfirmID: If you do not have a REAL ID or another acceptable form of ID, the TSA introduced the TSA ConfirmID program as of February 1, 2026. This is an optional, fee-based service ($45) that allows you to attempt to verify your identity at the checkpoint.
• Digital IDs: Some states allow the use of mobile driver's licenses (mDL) or Digital IDs at select TSA checkpoints. However, it is strongly recommended that you always carry a physical form of acceptable ID as well.
• Name Matching: The name on your boarding pass should match the name on your government-issued ID.

For the most up-to-date and complete list, you can always check the official TSA website.

For international travel, the requirements are significantly more stringent than for domestic flights. While domestic travel focuses on identity verification for security, international travel requires documentation that verifies both your identity and citizenship to satisfy the immigration and customs laws of both your destination and the United States.

Essential Documentation

• Valid U.S. Passport: This is mandatory for all international air travel. U.S. Passport cards are not accepted for international air travel.
• Passport Validity: Many countries require your passport to be valid for at least six months beyond your planned date of departure.
• Visa or Entry Authorization: Depending on your destination, you may need a visa, an electronic travel authorization (like an ESTA, eTA, or similar digital entry permits), or other specific entry documents.

Important Considerations

• Entry/Exit Requirements: You are responsible for knowing and meeting the specific documentation requirements for every country on your itinerary. You can verify these requirements via the U.S. Department of State’s travel guidance for your specific destination.
• Traveling with Children: Every traveler, regardless of age, must have their own valid passport. If you are traveling internationally with children without one or both parents present, you may be required to show legal evidence of your relationship and potentially a notarized letter of consent from the parent(s) not present.
• Damaged Passports: Ensure your passport is in good condition. Passports that are damaged beyond normal wear and tear or show evidence of unauthorized alterations may be rejected by immigration officials, which could result in being denied boarding or denied entry into a country.

Whether you need a visa for international travel depends entirely on your destination, the purpose of your trip, and the duration of your stay.

When are Visas Required?

• Purpose of Travel: While many countries allow U.S. citizens to enter visa-free for tourism or short business trips, you will almost always require a visa if you are traveling for work, study, long-term stays, or specialized research.
• Length of Stay: Many visa-free programs have strict limits (often 90 days). If you intend to stay beyond that, you must apply for a visa or residency permit in advance.
• Electronic Travel Authorizations (eTAs/ETIAS): Increasingly, even countries that do not require a formal visa for U.S. citizens require an Electronic Travel Authorization. These are digital entry permits (like the upcoming ETIAS for Europe) that must be applied for and approved before you depart.

How to Find Your Requirements

Because entry rules change frequently, you should always check the requirements for your specific itinerary using official, authoritative sources:

1. U.S. Department of State – Country Information: This is the most reliable resource. Simply enter your destination country in the search bar, and you will find detailed information regarding entry/exit requirements, visa policies, and travel advisories.
2. Embassy or Consulate: For the most definitive and up-to-date information, you can contact the embassy or consulate of the country you plan to visit directly.
3. Third-Party Tools: Websites like CIBTvisas offer convenient tools that can help you quickly check visa requirements based on your passport and destination.

PRO TIP: Always verify these requirements well in advance of booking your travel. Some visa processes involve submitting your physical passport to an embassy or waiting for mail-in processing, which can take several weeks or longer.

If you are uncertain of insurance or NO insurance, the best time is to insure it at the same time you book it.

Ideally, everything you put together will go smoothly, and you'll never require insurance. Having that crystal ball in your suit case would be great. Things, however, don't always go that easy.

The best way to consider purchasing insurance is:

• Put the main part of the trip first, ie, cruise, flight, etc
• Will you be needing transportation?
• Will you be adding excursions or tours?
• What detours will you consider

Try not to leave anything to chance, and then add it all up. This is the monetary value you'll be considering your insurance purchase.
