Passports & Travel Document Arrangements

A Passport Is Required for International Travel

All tour members must possess a valid U.S. passport when traveling outside of the U.S. To travel on an international guided tour or river cruise, it's required that each traveler's passport contains at least three blank visa pages and is valid for six months after the completion of the tour. Before booking your trip abroad, ensure you have all your passport information up to date and ready to go. Check out our guide on Passport Renewal Application Timing.

Travel Documents & Entry Visas for US Citizens

Some countries require US citizens to have an Entry Visa prior to arrival. To check if any travel documents are necessary for your travels, ask the CIBT Entry Guide here.

Misc. Taxes

Some countries may charge you a Departure Tax when you check into the airport for your departing flight. Some countries charge a one-time Reciprocity Tax. Others may even refund you a Value Added Tax (VAT).

A VAT, or Value Added Tax, is a consumption tax applied to goods and services in European Union countries. It is typically included in the purchase price and can range up to 25% or more. Foreign tourists may be eligible for a VAT refund, which works a bit like a tax-free shopping day in the U.S. The refund allows visitors to claim back the VAT paid on eligible purchases when they leave the country. To learn more, read out guide on VAT Refunds in Europe.

Keep Your Important Information Safe

We advise keeping a record of your passport number, place, and date of issue and a photocopy of the first page separately. If your passport gets lost or stolen while you are traveling, advise your Travel Director immediately, and they will assist you in contacting the necessary parties to issue a temporary replacement passport.
