Verification requirements

Identity screening is required upon arrival at these countries:

Verification requirements for Canada

If you’re travelling to, from or within Canada, you’re required to carry proper identification for yourself and any children travelling with you. This will assist in confirming your legal right or authorisation to enter Canada.

Verification requirements for the USA

The Secure Flight Program was developed by the United States (U.S.) Transportation Security Administration (TSA) with the purpose of enhancing the security of domestic and international commercial air travel.

If you’re travelling to, from or within the USA, the Secure Flight mandate requires you to provide the following information to the airline at least 72 hours before your flight:

  • Full name (as in your government-issued photo identification, such as a passport)
  • Date of birth
  • Gender
  • Redress Number or Known Traveller Number, where applicable


United States (US) Advanced Passenger Information System (APIS) Final Rule

If you’re travelling to or from the USA, the US APIS Final Rule requires you to provide the following information to the airline before you arrive in or depart from the USA:

  • Full name (as in your passport)
  • Date of birth
  • Gender
  • Passport and alien registration number, where applicable
  • Passport country of issue
  • Passport expiry date
  • Nationality
  • Country of residence
  • Address in the USA (for non-US citizens who will be staying in the US for 8 hours or more)
     

You can provide these details online when you make a booking, or at the airport when you check in by printing and completing this form.


The US APIS Final Rule mandates that inbound commercial air and sea carriers electronically submit passenger data prior to arrival in the US, as well as prior to departure from the US. The rule is the first consolidation of regulations from the former Immigration and Naturalization Service and Customs Service, now part of US Bureau of Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The publication of this regulation expands the mandate to include inbound and outbound APIS data from commercial air and sea carriers.

APIS data continues to serve as an enforcement tool to identify suspect or high-risk passengers, while facilitating the travel of law-abiding passengers - a majority of the passengers - through the entry and clearance process.

Regulations for disinsection

Some countries require the passenger cabins of all aircraft to be treated with insecticides prior to arrival.
