Why the Aruba ED Card is Essential

The Aruba ED Card, part of the island’s Embarkation and Disembarkation (ED) program, is mandatory for all travelers. Whether you hold a visa or are visa-exempt, obtaining this card before your flight is crucial for boarding. Remember, the ED Card is not a visa, and Aruban border authorities retain the right to grant or deny entry upon arrival.

“The peace of mind that came with using this service was worth every penny. The priority processing and personalized support were exactly what I needed. Will definitely use it again for my next trip to Aruba.”
John D., London

Enhanced Travel Tips and Additional Services

To further enhance your travel experience, we’ve compiled additional tips and services that may be of interest:

1. Sustainability Fee Notice

Starting July 2024, Aruba has implemented a $20 Sustainability Fee for visitors arriving by air. This fee supports various projects aimed at improving the island’s sustainability efforts. The fee is collected through the ED Card process, ensuring you’re contributing to preserving Aruba’s natural beauty. Make sure to account for this fee when planning your trip.

2. VIP Arrival Services

Maximize your time on the island by using a VIP concierge service. This service fast-tracks you through the arrival process, including customs and immigration, and can arrange for airport pickup transportation directly to your accommodation. Perfect for those who value convenience and time.

3. Packing and Preparation Tips

Ensure a smooth trip by packing essentials like your passport, sun protection, and any prescription medications. We recommend bringing extra medication, as specific brands may not be available in Aruba. Additionally, consider enrolling in Global Entry if you’re a US traveler, which can help you avoid long lines at security.

4. Embassy Registration Service

If you’re a citizen of Canada, the UK, or the US, consider registering with your embassy during your stay in Aruba. This service allows you to receive travel updates and makes it easier for your embassy to contact you in case of an emergency. We offer this as part of our premium service package.

5. Travel Insurance Advice

Although Aruba no longer requires you to purchase the Aruba Visitors Insurance, we highly recommend securing travel insurance that includes COVID-19 coverage. This can protect you against unforeseen events and ensure you receive proper medical care if needed during your stay.
