When traveling to Aruba, there are a few things you need to keep in mind. These include airline updates, filling in the Aruba ED Card (embarkation/disembarkation card), and more! 

✈️

Airline Updates & Requirements

Always verify airline requirements and any travel updates leading up to your travel date. Download your airline's app on your phone for easy boarding pass access, and flight and gate changes on the day of travel.

Embarkation/Disembarkation (ED) card

The Aruba ED Card (Embarkation/Disembarkation) is a mandatory requirement for all individuals, including infants and children, entering Aruba. It is necessary to complete and obtain approval for this document. To access the official ED Card page, kindly use the following official link. There is a $20 charge per passenger (see sustainability fee below).

It is important to note that some other websites may charge a fee to assist you with this form-filling process. These websites are not affiliated with Aruba's official immigration services. You can fill in the ED-Card within the 7 days before your travel to Aruba.

Sustainability Fee

Starting July 1st, 2024, Aruba will implement a $20 Sustainability Fee for visitors arriving by air to the island. This fee will support a number of projects aimed at enhancing and improving sustainability efforts on the island. Learn more here.

What to bring with you

Make sure you are packed for success and bring important travel documents and other must-haves like prescription drugs, sun protection and travel insurance. If you're going to run out of specific medicine while on your trip here, it's best to just bring extra with you, since we cannot guarantee our pharmacies carry your exact medicatoin. More packing tips can be found here

Global Entry and avoiding long lines

To avoid long lines at domestic and international security screening points, you can enroll in Global Entry (for US travelers only). Travelers must be pre-approved. Make sure to start the application process well ahead of time, as this includes an in-person interview and rigid background checks. Find the Global Entry application form here

Traveling with pets

There are import requirements for pets (dogs and cats) from the United States of America to Aruba. Learn more here.

Travel health information

In light of the continued global increase in measles cases, the Department of Public Health Aruba (DVG) aims to take a proactive approach to support the early identification of potential imported cases and help prevent the spread of measles on the island. More info can be found here

 

Did you know?

Travelers to Aruba are no longer required to purchase the Aruba Visitors Insurance. However, it is optional and if you would like to purchase the policy, you can do so here.
 
We highly recommend each traveler to have travel insurance including COVID-19 coverage. 
 
Please note that all travelers will still be required to complete Aruba’s Embarkation/Disembarkation Card prior to arrival, which is the country’s digitized customs and immigration process.

The Government of Aruba together with the Department of Public Health continuously monitors the situation based on a range of factors and epidemiological indicators to assess risk levels. This information is subject to change at the discretion of the Government of Aruba.
