Can you cross the Mexican border in San Diego without a passport?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Although crossing back into the United States without a passport or WHTI compliant Drivers License (must denote citizenship, they are only currently offered by NY, WA and a couple of other states) means you are not in compliance with the new regulations as of now the only penalty is the possibility of a longer wait (at the border crossing in San Ysidro, CA you can expect to wait an additional 1-3 hours in the non WHTI compliant line while at Otay Mesa there would be no difference) however there is word that fines may soon be implemented for repeat offenders.

Can you show your birth certificate - in lieu of a passport - to fly from England to Northern Ireland?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The answer depends on the traveller's nationality, not the origin of the flight. Regardless, most countries now require passports, and will reject birth certificates, which are not considered to be travel documents (i.e., they can identify you within your country of birth, but are useless to anyone needing proof of your identity outside your birthplace).

View the information in the related link for Ireland entry information, which may not be up to date; always consult a travel agent or local embassy or similar for current regulations and requirements.

Any airline flying from a UK airport will ask for photo ID at check in, whether UK citizens or others, and as UK citizens don't have internal ID cards, the passport is the best way of providing this, and is also the best way for foreigners to prove who they are.

Birth Certificates obviously don't have your photo as you look now, in the UK they have never had photos on them, so they would be useless. Northern Ireland is part of the UK, so if a non-UK citizen has already obtained entry into England (part of the UK) there should be no need for further entry requirements.

Birth certificates tell nothing about the person other than the information that pertained to them at the time of their birth. They tell nothing of a possible criminal record, which is, especially these days, vital information when travelling. There are many times when a person is out of jail on bail when they must surrender their passport while awaiting trial. This helps insure the person will not leave the country before their trial date, unlike a birth certificate.

As a green card holder do you need a passport to travel Mexico and back to the USA?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Follow the link below to the Canadian government site concerning this question and scroll to the bottom where there are three buttons that address crossings by air (plane), land (car) or water (boat). Suffice to say, having a passport is a great convenience and satisfies the requirements of all three.

Concerning air: as of January 2007, a passport has become required for entry Concerning land: Photo ID plus a birth certificate (under 18 need only present a birth certificate) is currently still an option, but a passport will become required as of June 1, 2009. Concerning water: same requirements and future as land travel. Please follow the link for a more thorough treatment on rules, regulations and exceptions.
