FLOURTOWN Posted March 14, 2006 #1 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Our grandaughter is traveling with us in April. What documentation do I need for her so that the boarding and leaving the ship will not be a problem. We are cruising to the western caribbean.

delyn Posted March 14, 2006 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2006 A passport is the best thing; however, assuming she doesn't have one (you don't mention her age) you will need a notarized letter from your son/daughter giving you permission to take her and authorization for medical treatment. You will also need her certified birth certificate. There is a section on celebrity's website - here is the link: http://www.celebritycruises.com/beforeyourcruise/faq/home.do;jsessionid=00000zofFzE0AL-jlF5EXK4RytI:1051tg34t?faqSubjectName=Online+Check-in+and+Documentation&faqId=460&pagename=faq_answers Happy cruising.

rjg41 Posted March 14, 2006 #3 Share Posted March 14, 2006 As soon as I get on my other computer I will send you a link for the form to get notorized. Despite what others may say do not leave home without it. It also covers permission for medical treatment which is a must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ships R Great Posted March 14, 2006 #4 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Both parents need to sign the notorized form, also. (Even if there is a divorce and one parent has full custody.) If you have time, get her a passport. It is the easiest way to go, but a certified birth certifcate will suffice. That being said, we had a passport and the ceritifed letters but no one asked for the letters. I would always take them, tho. The next person may ask for them.

judyfssw Posted March 15, 2006 #6 Share Posted March 15, 2006 The airlines also will not allow you to take a minor on the plane without letters from parents agreeing to the travel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optifire Posted March 18, 2006 #9 Share Posted March 18, 2006 In the travel industry of today, even though adults have their birth certificates, we are still required also to show proof of photo Id. Are children required to have a photo Id? I guess next year that will be taken care of when all travelers will be required to have a passport.

Check with your carrier or cruiseline but generally under 16 children do not need picture ID only the birth certificate for those areas that accept BCs.
