Information for cruise passengers
To ensure a smooth trip in compliance with all federal law requirements and criteria, Concais provides some important information and links on the documentation required for boarding cruises. They can be widely consulted on the websites of the Federal Police, Itamaraty, Planalto and Federal Justice.
It is important that all passengers present an original document, in good condition and with a photo that reflects the person's current appearance. We recommend that the document be issued less than 10 years ago. It is forbidden by law to board passengers with copies of documents (xerox), even if authenticated.
Authorization for Accommodation - For minors who will travel unaccompanied by their guardians, in addition to authorization to travel, it is necessary to present authorization for accommodation, in accordance with Article 250 of Law No. 8.069, of July 13, 1990. Authorization is essential for national and international travel.
