Vinny Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Hi Everyone, My Wife and I would like to take a Cruise to the Bahamas in July. I am a US Citizen so I'll have my Passport. My Wife is holding her Green Card. What else is required for her in order to take a Cruise and come back safely to USA? Thanks,Vinny and Qing Link to comment
dnoblett Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Your spouse will need both passport and green-card to travel in the Caribbean and return to the USA, green-card holders do not need a visa to visit Canada, Mexico, and the countries in the Caribbean. Also if name on passport and green card are different maiden/married, then carry a copy of a document showing name was changed, "Marriage Cert" Link to comment
Vinny Posted April 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Dan So she only needs her Chinese Passport and Green Card right? No need to fill out anything for a Visa for a Cruise to the Bahamas? Thanks,Vinny Link to comment

Vinny Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Hi, One more thing. When registering for the Cruise Tickets, do I use my wife's Chinese Passport name (Maiden) or Green Card (Married) name?? Thanks,Vinny Link to comment
dnoblett Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 I don't think the cruise opporator is as critical as airlines and either name should be fine. But if they are anal then use passport name. I would probability use passport names if were me. For domest air travel married name is fine. Link to comment
