Do I Really Need a Passport to Go to the US?

by admin on January 23, 2009


Many Canadians ask us whether they really need a passport to enter the US these days. If you fly into to the US, you do need a valid passport. If you drive into the US, you can enter with only your birth certificate and drivers license for 6 more months. Starting June 1, 2009, U.S. law will require Canadians to present a valid passport to enter the United States by water or land. What a difference this is from when I was a kid in Alberta and we would hop back and forth across the border with NO id whatsoever. Times sure have changed.

Apply for your passport today to ensure you have it when you need it. We all know how long it takes for Passport Canada to process the application and get you your passport.
