lrockwitt Posted March 19, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I know this has been asked before, but are US citizens required to pay this fee? I think I heard the rule has changed since 2016? We are doing South America in 2028 and want to know if this is necessary? Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would check closer to 2018 to confirm that it is still suspended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted March 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Lisa, It is currently suspended for US passport holders. Which cruise will you be on? We will be on the Emerald from BA around the horn and up to LA. Sails Feb 28, 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srpilo Posted March 20, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Did not know that ..Good to know Even though we paid the fee when we cruised the Star to Antarctica and it was suppose to be good for 10 years. Definitely less hassle now that it's suspended Srpilo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccio Posted March 20, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Should you be staying in Argentina pre or post cruise, please note that Argentina now rebates the 21% VAT (value added tax) on lodging for international visitors too.

casofilia Posted March 20, 2017 #8 Share Posted March 20, 2017 It was suspended when Obama was there in late March 2016 but who know what will happen in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
