Submitting an ED Card for Private Jet Charter Flights to and from Aruba
Traveling to Aruba by private jet means enjoying a seamless, luxurious experience—from the moment you book your flight until you step off the aircraft.
To ensure a smooth entry and exit process on the island, all travelers (including those on private charters) must complete the mandatory Aruba Embarkation/Debarkation Card.
Here’s everything you need to know about the requirements to complete and submit your Embarkation/Debarkation before your private flight to/from Aruba.
What is the Aruba ED Card?
The Aruba Embarkation/Debarkation Card, commonly referred to as an ‘ED Card’, is an online travel document required by the Aruban government for all passengers arriving or departing the island.
This form collects essential travel, passport, and personal information to help streamline arrivals & departures.
Who Must Complete the Embarkation/Debarkation Card?
Whether you are arriving on a commercial flight or enjoying the exclusivity of a private charter with Air Charter Aruba, you are required to complete the card.
For those traveling on private jet charters, the process is no different; you need to ensure that your travel information is accurate and up-to-date.
The form must be filled out online and submitted at least 48 hours prior to your scheduled arrival, ensuring that your journey begins on a stress-free note.
When Should You Complete the Card?
- Before Arrival: The card must be filled out online at least 48 hours prior to your scheduled arrival in Aruba.
- Before Departure: In some cases, the form also functions as a debarkation card when leaving the island. Be sure to check the latest guidelines for any updates.
Although you have until 48 hours before your flight, you should complete the Aruba Embarkation/Disembarkation Card within 7 days before your travel to Aruba; ideally, at least 72 hours before your flight to ensure everything is processed smoothly upon arrival.
Note: Be sure to confirm if the same process is required for your departure
