cruisegoal100 Posted August 30, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 30, 2017 We first noticed this in June in Miami after completing a cruise on Equinox. Not sure if it applies to all ports or only to certain ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voyager70 Posted August 30, 2017 #5 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Still had to fill out form departing Anthem in July. Must just be certain ports of departure/return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voyager70 Posted August 30, 2017 #10 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Looks like this change is just for the Florida ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunkissed Mommy Posted August 30, 2017 #11 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Definitely sounds like a Florida port thing. We got off a Carnival ship in Fort Lauderdale in mid-August and didn't have to fill the forms out. It was a nice relief. Not that those forms were hard to do, but I liked not doing it for once!

polymedia Posted August 31, 2017 #14 Share Posted August 31, 2017 They were not needed in Tampa, even coming from Cuba, a couple of weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumbaamd Posted September 1, 2017 #15 Share Posted September 1, 2017 On Harmony right now. Cabin attendant dropped off our Customs Form tonight. Always seems like when they give it to you in the cabin, you will need it in the terminal. Has been a great cruise! R&D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Dawg Posted September 1, 2017 #16 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Just returned 8/20-8/27 Allure of the Seas - Port Everglades - and we did not need custom forms. Super fast disembarkation. They called bag tag numbers 1-30, we disembarked deck 5, two locations, picked up our bags, showed Customer Officer our passports/birth certificate and out the terminal. BTW - one of the best cruises to date, the boat is awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare orville99 Posted September 1, 2017 #19 Share Posted September 1, 2017 So...if no forms are needed for Florida ports...if you do express walk off...you just walk off???? Do you still have to present passports to customs??? Yes, everything else at Customs is the same as always - they just don't ask for the form any more.

Just assumed after having seen half the Caribbean and two ports in Mexico I might need- wait for it- a customs document! Silly me. Next time I'll stock up on Cohibas!!!
