Quick Question about boarding requirements.

[slavens_09]

Have sailed solo for the most part but this December the whole family is coming along for their first cruise.

 

They are traveling with 3 kids all under 16. 
 

kids under 16 don’t need a photo ID right? Just a birth certificate for boarding.

 

Thanks for the help.

Just make sure your kids birth certificate is the one needed by Carnival.  From Carnival's website:

 

Birth Certificate Information

The following are acceptable:

• An original or copy of a birth certificate issued by a government agency (state/county/city) or the Department of Health and Vital Statistics
• A clear, legible copy (photocopy) of a birth certificate that was originally issued by a government agency (state/county/city) or the Department of Health and Vital Statistics. The copy does not need to be notarized or certified.
• Birth Certificate Card
• A Consular report of Birth Abroad
• Internationally adopted children (under the age of 18): If the adoptive parent was not issued a birth certificate, we will accept as proof of citizenship, a Certificate of Citizenship by the U.S. and adoption paperwork. A Certificate of Citizenship is issued by the U.S. once the adoption is finalized.
• Guests may obtain a copy of a birth certificate by contacting: The Department of Health and Vital Statistics at: www.vitalchek.com. If the guest has laminated their birth certificate, it is acceptable.
