HELP!-What to do with Covid test results/Bermuda auth

[jmcross]

I cannot figure out how to upload either of these docs on either the website or the app.

If there is a way, can someone walk me through it?

Do I just print them and show them at the pier?

From what I read when I did our Bermuda Travel Applications, you are no longer required to upload your test results, only your vaccination records.

In Bermuda now. You just need your test results to board. No need to upload anywhere anymore. They check them when you check in.

How long before your cruise did you receive the approved Travel Authorization from the Bermuda Gov't?

I am sailing on 8/19/22 out of Baltimore. Applied 7/19/22  nothing yet. I was told about a week before sailing they process them.

We just got back last week.  You need your test results to board the ship and no longer( as of May) need to upload them.  We got our authorizations at about day 10 prior to the cruise.  Just make sure you bring your Bermuda TA with you to check in, although Bermuda won't ask for it, the cruise port does.  We print out everything so we're not trying to find it all in our phones.

I appreciate this information.  Our Bermuda cruise is 9/11 and I just heard about this authorization.  The $40 per person really irks me though!!!

[jmcross]

Thanks everyone. I have the tests results and Bermuda auth printed and ready to go for tomorrow.

I ended up having to call Bermuda for the auth. I never got it even though I applied a month out. They processed it over the phone.

I got it about a week before sailing. If you don’t get it you can call them (there’s a toll free phone number) and they’ll process it when you’re on the phone. Much easier now that they don’t require you to upload the test results.

I think it used to be around $75.00 or so last year. So, less irking required.

thanks for the info......

Did you upload your vaccine card when you applied for it?  If not, that could account for why you never got the authorization beforehand.

Has anyone had luck printing the approved Bermuda Travel Authorization form?   It keeps cutting off the initials/timestamp (and not even printing them on the second page).

What date are you sailing?

August 18th.  We received our travel authorization approval today but everytime we try to print, it cuts off the initials/timestamp.

I printed what I could and they can look at my email in my phone to see what I see.

Don't worry about the date/time stamp.  Ours was cut off too and no one cared.  They just wanted to see the actual authorization.  They all print that way btw.

Thank you --that's good to know!

I'm on the same August 18th cruise. I also received the Travel Authorization today, and like you, the printout is cutoff on the bottom. As long as we have the email authorization on our phone, I think we should be good.

That is good to know. Surprised they can't fix something that seems so simple.

Probably because they are created on a system defaulted to metric and using A4 paper, which is longer than the American 8.5x11 paper. Try using the "fit to page" setting on your printer.

As I said, they accept them even with that cut off. They don't even look at that at all.  They literally only look at the top of the form where it has all the info.   That date/time has nothing to do with the actual authorization.  It's outside the "frame" of the actual form.  So, it really does not matter.
