Do you need a passport to travel to Canada now?

Question

My daughter (13) and I are going to Niagra falls this weekend and I have a passport but she does not. Does she need one?

Answer 1

well i hope this will help clear up any confusion... i found this for you!

Starting Jan. 23, 2007 all airline passengers landing in the United States will have to carry a passport, not just the driver's license and birth certificate that can now be used by Canadians crossing the border and by US citizens returning from Canada, Mexico, the Bahamas, and the Caribbean.

US authorities say the rush proves that the tighter border controls are working to improve security. The rules will be extended to the busy land borders with Canada and Mexico by June 1, 2009.

Answer 2

You'll need to bring her birth certificate. I think the new law goes into effect in June of 2009. But everyone 19 and older needs to have one.

Answer 3

I'm sorry to say this but yes she does. You always do.

Answer 4

Yes she does, it's the new law.

She doesn't need the passport to enter Canada, the United States wants American citizens to carry their passports to reenter the country.

Answer 5

Answer 6
