Surrendering passports on cruise ships. Citizens may be asked to surrender their passport at time of check-in. If you are a US citizen you can cruise on Liberty with a birth certificate so it really doesnt make sense that your passport would be surrendered. To visit our passport offices in Sydney Melbourne or Canberra you need to phone us first on 131 232 to make an appointment.

This website presents a main menu on the left hand side from where you can browse our cruises and a toolbar menu at the top page with search live chat support and profile.

The documentation is required at embarkation and throughout the cruise and is the responsibility of the guest. Should this occur a passport would be required to leave or re-enter the US. For domestic cruises a valid passport or government issued photo ID is required.
