Do I need a visa for my Marella cruise?
You'll need a visa to enter some of the countries we sail to, even if you're not stepping ashore - keep an eye out for the 'ESTA required' logo on the brochure itinerary pages to see if that's the case, we’ll also let you know via the important information section when you book.
When you need a visa depends on the destination. In some countries, you can get a visa on arrival at the airport and free of charge. But there are some that you need to pre-purchase before you go. It's best to check before you travel and allow enough time to get your visa. If you need a visa before you travel, you can usually get these via the country's embassy, high commission or consulate websites.
Remember, visa requirements are subject to change, so make sure to check back close to your sailing date.
