I was wondering if anyone knew when we would require a passport to enter USA? I just use driver's license and birth certificate last time I went over the border. I heard it was changing but did not know when.

Thanks for any help.

I believe it is June 1 2009
just sent away for mine last week. Need it for the Potomac!

Thanks Tari. How much did it cost you? It is good for a year or more?

Better get on to it!

a passport is good for 5 years,, im sure it was 75.00 or around there plus having photos done.. ive had one for a few years now as my husband and I travel somewhere "warm" each year and i needed it for that.. LeeAnne

This should answer all your questions.

Oh yes, absolutely go to the source! I'd hate to see someone get stuck at the border because of any mistaken advice given on an anonymous forum! "But no, border crossing guards, 'Breeder' said I don't need a passport!"

After 9/11, everything is changing for security reason of course!

Please note that as of June 1 anyone crossing the border requires a passport.

That means US residents coming up for shows as well.
