If you are a US citizen, you will not need a passport for travel by sea to Mexico (and also the Caribbean and Canada) until June 2009. If your cruise begins and ends in the same US port, you will not need a passport even after this date. Required documentation is a certified birth certificate (with a raised seal) or naturalization papers and a government-issued photo ID, such as a drivers license.

∙ 13y agoProbably, since even US citizens are usually required to have a passport in order to take a cruise.
There are some exceptions, and you could contact the US State Department with specifics if you want to see if they apply to you, but in practice it's probably easier just to assume you do need one; that way you won't be unpleasantly surprised later.

Do you need a passport to take a cruise to cozumel?
If you are a US citizen, and the cruise ship departs and returns to the same US port, you will not need a passport to go on the cruise - as long as the cruise ship does not stop in any countries that require a passport for US citizens. If the ship is only cruising in Mexico, and returns to the same port from which it departed, you can board the ship with a certified copy of your birth certificate and a government issued photo id. It is much better, however, to have a passport. If, for example, there is an emergency and you have to leave the ship and fly home from Mexico, you will need a passport.

You do not need a passport to cruise ONLY if you are on a "closed loop" cruise from the United States.

If you are starting or ending your cruise in another country then you will need a passport. Also check the U.S customs and borders web site. www.WHTI. Gov
