willtup5 Posted February 4, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 4, 2018 We are doing r/t alaska cruise from Seattle. I know passport for us citizens not required for this cruise. However do you need a passport to go into Victoria BC or into the Yukon from Skag way? Any help is appreciated David Sent from my SM-N950U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare broberts Posted February 4, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 4, 2018 See Have proper identification section of https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/ivc-rnc-eng.html. You should also check cruise line requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herfnerd Posted February 5, 2018 #6 Share Posted February 5, 2018 We did a R/T out of Seattle with a stop in Victoria - no issues going into town. We took a cab to Chinatown to see Fan Tan Alley, have dinner and then walked back via the Inner Harbor. Didn't need a passport Can't say as to the Yukon via Skagway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darlipoo Posted April 21, 2018 #8 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I thought everyone needed a passport these days. IF everything went perfectly you may not use it but if there was a problem and you ended up,off the ship in a foreign country without one- could be problematic. Not sure when you are cruising but there are ways to expedite process. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bctraveller Posted April 22, 2018 #9 Share Posted April 22, 2018 If any of the stops (Victoria) are included, then you must have a passport. Also you Are sailing in Canadian waters and whether you really get off the ship, you do required to carry your passport. Most ships a passport is listed as a requirement to board. Check you passenger contract Have a great trip. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bctraveller Posted April 22, 2018 #10 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Last time i was on the Alaskan cruise we took the Skagway train to the Yukon and a lot of the US citizens did not take their passports, they were turned back at the change over point. The Yukon is Canadian soil. Rule of thumb, take your passport on the ship and if you are going out to the Yukon put it in your back pack.
