Cruise from Seattle to Alaska – Canadian visa required?
Czech citizen visits friends in Seattle on the Visa Waiver Program. They want to take a cruise to Alaska. He does not plan to leave the ship at the British Columbian port of call. Does he need a Canadian visa?
Yes he does, even if he stays on the cruise ship at the Canadian port!
If you check the “visa requirements” on the website of the Holland American Line you can read:
New Canadian visa requirements affecting all Alaska sailings, Alaska tours and Canada & New England sailings that enter Canada:
If you are a NON-U.S. or NON-CANADIAN citizen, you will be DENIED BOARDING without compensation if you do not hold the proper VISA documents! Regardless of what your Consulate official may advise, Canadian officials WILL NOT allow guests to remain onboard while in a Canadian port without proper documentation, so you will be denied boarding if the visa is not presented at the pier at the time of your scheduled cruise departure.
