Passport & Documentation
A valid passport is required for all persons departing Australia and in some cases a re-entry visa to return.

Non-Australian passport holders must check on their own individual visa requirements. It is the passenger's sole responsibility to ensure they are in possession of the necessary documentation and in compliance of current government and transportation companie's regulations. Passports must have at least six months validity from date of entry into Canada and the United States of America.

For holders of a valid Australian Passport, a current visa to Canada or the United States is not required for travel to United States of America for a stay of up to 90 days.
