Cross-Border Travel Checklist: What to Bring
Passports, forms, and a few things people forget — a simple checklist before your next cross-border coach trip.
A little preparation avoids most of the hassle at the checkpoint. Here's what to have ready.
Documents
A passport valid for at least six months, plus any arrival card required by your destination country.
Timing
Arrive at least 20 minutes before departure — boarding closes shortly before scheduled departure time.
Luggage
Check your route's luggage allowance in advance; extra bags may incur a small fee.
Currency
Carry a small amount of local currency for the destination side, even if you plan to pay by card everywhere.
